Today, we have a new exclusive clip from the upcoming horror-mystery-thriller from Terror Films and director Julio Maria Martino. Country of Hotels tells the stories of the desperate souls who pass through the doors of 508, a room on the fifth floor of an anonymous, decaying hotel. “We are taken on a surreal and blackly comic journey down its lonely corridors and behind its outdated furnishings and stained surfaces.
