The trailer for Mouseboat Massacre opens on a cheerful scene: a group of friends boarding a luxurious river cruise boat, “The Mouseboat,” decked out with vintage decor, whimsical lights, and mouse-themed everything. It’s supposed to be a celebratory weekend getaway, filled with laughter, drinks, and picture-perfect scenery. As the boat pulls away from the shore, one of the friends, Jake, jokes, “Hope nobody’s scared of a little mouse!” Little do they know, this trip will turn into their worst nightmare.
As night falls, the fun quickly takes a dark turn. Strange sounds echo through the lower decks, and shadows flicker near the boat’s edges. A voiceover from one of the crew warns, “They say these waters hold secrets…and some should stay hidden.” The camera zooms in on an old legend engraved in the boat’s wood, a haunting tale about a deadly plague that once ravaged the region, with victims rumored to haunt the rivers as vengeful spirits.
One by one, the friends encounter strange and terrifying situations. Some find bloodied remnants hidden within mouse-themed decor, while others swear they see something—or someone—stalking them from the shadows. The trailer reveals glimpses of a masked figure wearing a grotesque mouse mask, creeping through the boat’s narrow corridors, carrying a set of brutal, makeshift weapons.
Desperation mounts as the friends try to escape, but realize they’re trapped in the middle of nowhere, with no cell signal and the killer lurking around every corner. The trailer cuts to scenes of them fighting back, turning everyday objects into weapons and navigating the boat’s tight, claustrophobic spaces in a frantic attempt to survive. In a climactic moment, Jake faces off with the killer in the engine room, the lights flickering ominously as he whispers, “This was supposed to be a party.”
The trailer ends with a single scream piercing the night, and a final shot of the mouse-masked killer staring directly into the camera.
