A24, who continues to deliver nothing but excellence in horror (The Witch, Green Room, The Blackcoat’s Daughter), has just told us that they’re going to kick summer off with the hyped It Comes at Night.
Originally slated for an August release, It Comes at Night will now open in theaters everywhere on June 9, 2017.
In Trey Edward Shults’ film:
A man (Joel Edgerton) learns that the evil stalking his family home may be only a prelude to horrors that come from within.
Secure within a desolate home as an unnatural threat terrorizes the world, the tenuous domestic order he has established with his wife and son is put to the ultimate test with the arrival of a desperate young family seeking refuge.
Despite the best intentions of both families, paranoia and mistrust boil over as the horrors outside creep ever-closer, awakening something hidden and monstrous within him as he learns that the protection of his family comes at the cost of his soul.
Riley Keough, Carmen Ejogo, Christopher Abbot, and Kelvin Harrison Jr. also star.
Here’s the eerie first teaser to go along with the film’s phenomenal one-sheet, which is easily one of the best I’ve ever seen.
