Trailer for ‘Behind You’ Reflects the Horror [Video]
We broke the news a few months back that Vertical Entertainment had acquired the North American and UK rights from XYZ Films for Behind You, a horror film from first time writer/directing duo Andrew Mecham and Matthew Whedon.
We now have the first trailer for the film, which hails from the producers of The Gallows and The Gallows II, and stars Addy Miller (Dark Places, The Secret Life of Bees), Elizabeth Birkner (“The Outpost”), and Jan Broberg (“Everwood”).
In the film, “Two young sisters, sent to live with their estranged Aunt, find that all the mirrors in her house are covered or hidden. When one of the sisters happens upon a mirror in the basement, she unknowingly releases a malicious demon that had haunted her mother and aunt years ago.”
The film will arrive on VOD platforms April 17, 2020.
One of contemporary horror’s best werewolf movies is 2017’s Good Manners, and it’s finally set to receive a proper physical media release.
Icarus Films is partnering with OCN Distribution to unleash a new Blu-ray that’s now available to preorder via Vinegar Syndrome. and with a limited edition slipcover.
Set in São Paulo, the film follows Clara, a lonely nurse from the outskirts of the city who is hired by mysterious and wealthy Ana to be the nanny of her soon to be born child. Against all odds, the two women develop a strong bond. But a fateful night marked by a full moon changes their plans.
Good Manners is the second collaboration between filmmakers Juliana Rojas and Marco Dutra, who write and direct. Zama’s Rui Poças‘ cinematography captures this unique werewolf tale described as “Disney meets Jacques Tourneur.”
Our own Trace Thurman wrote in his review, “With Good Manners, Rojas and Dutro have made one of the best werewolf movies ever made. That they are able juggle commentaries on racism and classism while still managing to tell two deeply affecting love stories is remarkable.”
