‘The Witch in the Window’ Peeks Through This First Poster
Bloody Disgusting recently shared the xclusive trailer premiere for writer-director Andy Mitton’s (We Go On, YellowBrickRoad) ghost story The Witch in the Window, which is set to have its World Premiere at next month’s Fantasia Film Festival in Montreal before heading to FrightFest in August. Now, check out this brand new piece of art.
“The film focuses on separated father Simon and his estranged twelve-year-old son, Finn, who head to Vermont to repair an old farmhouse and encounter the malicious spirit of a previous owner, an infamously cruel woman named Lydia. With every repair Simon makes, he’s also making her spirit stronger…until a terrifying encounter leaves him doubting whether he can protect his son from the evil that’s making its way into their heads, and hearts.”
Alex Draper (Yellowbrickroad), Arija Bareikis (The Purge) and Charlie Tacker star. Producers are Mitton with Richard W. King. Clark Freeman served as Executive Producer.
Shudder previously acquired the film for UK, US, Canada, Germany, Australia and New Zealand out of the Cannes market.
Robert Eggers (The Witch, Nosferatu) is back later this year with new horror movie Werwulf, and the very first teaser image from the hotly anticipated movie has surfaced tonight.
Oddly enough, this first look comes courtesy of the NBC Store, and it gives us a glimpse at a chilly Winter landscape from the film. Is there a werewolf hiding in the photo? Maybe…
Set in 13th century England, Werwulf sees a mysterious creature stalk the land as local folklore becomes a terrifying reality. The film hits theaters on December 25 via Focus Features.
Robert Eggers recently teased, “It’s the darkest thing I’ve ever written. By far.”
Eggers directs from a script he penned with his The Northman co-writer Sjón.
Aaron Taylor-Johnson (Nosferatu), Lily-Rose Depp (Nosferatu), Willem Dafoe (The Lighthouse), Ralph Ineson (The Witch), and Bodhi Rae Breathnach (Hamnet) star.
Robert Eggers and Sjón produce alongside Tim Bevan and Eric Fellner for Working Title. Maiden Voyage’s Chris Columbus and Eleanor Columbus are executive producing.
