Brutal Teaser Trailer for CORPORATE RETREAT Turns Team Building Into a Bloodbath
by Joey Paur · GeekTyrantPassage Pictures has dropped a nasty new 30-second teaser for Corporate Retreat, and this company getaway looks like absolute hell. The horror dark comedy comes from Aaron Fisher, and If you thought your last work retreat was awkward, this movie is here to make it look like a vacation.
The film centers on a group of driven young executives chasing success, only to find themselves trapped in a luxury retreat that spirals into straight-up survival horror. It’s corporate ambition meets brutal chaos. It leans into the same uncomfortable, twisted energy seen in The Menu and Opus, but this one cranks up the violence and lets it rip.
This new teaser wastes no time showing just how savage things get. This leans hard into the bloodshed and panic as the team-building exercises turn deadly.
At the center of it all is Alan Ruck, playing a corporate leader who snaps in the worst possible way. The cast backing him up includes Odeya Rush, Ashton Sanders, Rosanna Arquette, Sasha Lane, Zion Moreno, Tyler Alvarez, and Benjamin Norris, all caught in the chaos as alliances crumble and survival becomes the only goal.
The film’s synopsis reads: “Climbing the corporate ladder is not for the weak. Do you have what it takes to win? Find out a Phoenix Corporate Retreat! Ambitious young corporate execs on a team-building retreat face a deadly struggle when their leader turns violently against them.”
Fisher, who previously directed Inside the Rain, co-wrote the screenplay with Kerri Lee Romeo, and it seems like they had fun fully embracing the absurdity and brutality of this concept.
The practical effects also deserve a shout, with special make-up effects handled by Gary J. Tunnicliffe, which explains why everything looks so gnarly and real.
Passage Pictures is backing it for a full theatrical rollout starting May 22, 2026.
