Joe Keery & Liam Neeson Battle Exploding Fungus in New Sci‑Fi Thriller ‘Cold Storage’

The first official trailer for Cold Storage has arrived, unleashing a grotesque and gleefully gory world where a parasitic fungus threatens humanity. Featuring Liam Neeson, Joe Keery, and Georgina Campbell, the film sets disaster on overdrive with a wild mix of body horror and dark humor.

Trailer Breakdown

Set beneath a run-down self-storage facility over a former military base, employees Teacake (Joe Keery) and Naomi (Georgina Campbell) must fend off the rapidly mutating threat when it breaks containment. They’re joined by a veteran bioterror operative played by Neeson.

The trailer opens with a chilling visual of infected victims exploding into neon-green goo—classic body horror meets comedic spectacle. In a bizarre highlight, a deer using an elevator inside the storage facility elicits deadpan commentary that punctures the tension with absurdity.
