Cell is an upcoming 2016 American science fiction horror film directed by Tod Williams. It will receive its world premiere on February 26 at FrightFest, part of the Glasgow Film Festival, though a U.S. premiere date has not yet been scheduled.[1][2] The film, scripted by Stephen King and Adam Alleca, is based on King's 2006 novel of the same name. The film stars John Cusack, Samuel L. Jackson, and Isabelle Fuhrman. Cusack and Jackson also appeared in the film adaptation of King's short story 1408.

Plot

Clay Riddell, a New England artist, is a witness to an ugly phenomenon: a mysterious signal broadcast over the global cell phone network turns the majority of his fellow humans into mindless vicious animals. Now he and a few survivors must find and stop 'the pulse' and the person controlling it and reunite with his young son before it's too late.
