James Buckley, best known as one quarter of the Inbetweeners gang, is stepping out on his own in new horror film ‘The Pyramid’.

Is it scarier than poo cascading down a waterslide? Judge for yourself by watching the first trailer above.

Set beneath the scorching Egyptian desert, ‘The Pyramid’ sees a team of archaeologists venturing into a newly discovered pyramid. But they’re not alone.

This is probably the biggest role any of the stars of ‘The Inbetweeners 2' have appeared in since the show began in 2008. His co-star Simon Bird appeared in last year's limp 'The Harry Hill Movie', while Blake Harrison starred in the little-seen British drama 'Keeping Rosy' earlier this year.

Joe Thomas only has the two ‘Inbetweeners’ movies on his cinematic credits, but he’s set to appear in romantic comedy ‘The Darkest Universe’ later this year.

Here’s the first UK poster for the film which is coming to cinemas on 5 December, 2014.
