Stephen King may not be the big name on the film scene that he was in the ’80s and ’90s, but us older folks are familiar with the man’s game so best believe whenever his name is attached to a new project we’re all in on whatever it is.

On Wednesday (May 7), Lions Gate released the first trailer for their upcoming film adaptation of Stephen King’s 1979 novel, The Long Walk, and while it’s not a horror film per se it’s definitely a nerve-racking scary movie simply because it seems like something that could happen in Trump’s America (just sayin’). Centering a contest where participants are asked to simply walk as far as possible, things take a crazy turn as the rule states that anyone who walks below 3 miles per hour gets their ticket punched i.e. killed.

With soldiers accompanying them and shooting down contestants one by one, the group of walkers know that the last man standing isn’t just going to win the big prize (cash), but the prize of life itself. With men dropping off one by one due to health issues or simply trying to get out of the contest itself (bang, bang), The Long Walk seems like the kind of thriller that’ll have you hoping society never comes to such dystopian levels. With Cheeto Jesus in charge, it might though!

Check out the trailer for Stephen King’s The Long Walk below, and let us know if you’ll be checking it out when it hits theaters sometime this year.
