Well Go USA will be releasing Zach Lipovsky and Adam Stein‘s sci-fi thriller Freaks in theaters on August 23, and today Collider shares a new poster as well as a new trailer.

Emile Hirsch stars alongside Bruce Dern, Grace Park, Amanda Crew and Lexy Kolker in a film BD’s Rafael Motamayor called “claustrophobic and twisty” in his review.

Awarding the film 4/5 skulls, Motamayor wrote: “Freaks feels like an even more grounded, small-scale version of the X-Men, a sci-fi film filled with surprises, a message about parenthood and wanting to keep your child safe and isolated from the world, and a future star in Lexy Kolker.”

In this science-fiction thriller, a disturbed father (Hirsch) locks his bold 7-year-old daughter (Kolker) in a house, warning her of grave dangers outside. But the mysterious Mr. Snowcone (Dern) convinces the girl to escape and join him on a quest for family, freedom, and revenge.

Check out the new trailer and poster below.
