Ari Aster, the filmmaker behind last year’s breakout horror film Hereditary, returned this year with the unnerving and viscerally disturbing sun-soaked horror film Midsommar, which we’ve learned today is arriving on Digital and On Demand September 24 from A24, and on Blu-ray Combo Pack (plus DVD and Digital) and DVD October 8 from Lionsgate.
Sadly, it looks like the Extended Director’s Cut is *not* coming home with this release.
Blu-ray/DVD Special Features include:
- “Let the Festivities Begin: Manifesting Midsommar” Featurette
- “Bear in a Cage™” Promo
The film stars Florence Pugh as a young woman who reluctantly joins her boyfriend on a summer trip to a remote Swedish village for a midsummer festival, which becomes more and more sinister as the days pass. The Rotten Tomatoes Certified Fresh™ film also stars Jack Reynor), William Jackson Harper and Will Poulter.
After a family tragedy, a young American couple joins some friends at a midsummer festival in a remote Swedish village. What begins as a carefree summer holiday takes a sinister turn when the insular villagers invite their guests to partake in festivities that grow increasingly unnerving and viscerally disturbing.
