Negan’s Lucille has nothing on the baseball bat on the official UK poster for Chris Peckover’s holiday horror Better Watch Out, which is going to be one of your favorite films of the year when Well Go USA releases it on October 6, 2017. Universal Pictures will be releasing in the UK on December 8th. The one sheet shows someone holding a baseball bat wrapped in barbed-wire and Christmas lights. It’s almost as good as the ugly Christmas sweater teaser released by Well Go.
Described as Home Alone meets Scream, Trace reviewed the film out of the Fantastic Fest premiere, calling it “a hilariously bonkers home invasion tale.”
“Better Watch Out provides a bonkers twist on the home invasion sub-genre that had me squealing with glee from start to finish.”
“Set in a quiet American suburb on a snowy evening on the lead up to Christmas, Ashley (Olivia DeJonge), the regular babysitter for Deandra (Virginia Madsen) and Robert Lerner (Patrick Warburton), has to defend their twelve-year-old son (Levi Miller) from strangers breaking into the house – only to discover that this is far from a normal home invasion.”
The thriller is a Storm Vision Entertainment and Best Medicine production, directed by Chris Peckover (Undocumented) and written by Zack Kahn and Peckover.
