Horror that addresses social issues is all the rage right now – not that that’s anything new for the genre, mind you – and Deadline reports today that Vital Pictures/NME is breaking into the space with the upcoming Beneath Us, set for release this coming March.
The directorial debut of Max Pachman is described as being “a suspenseful and socially-relevant original horror story,” with both English and Spanish dialogue.
“The American Dream becomes a nightmare for a group of undocumented day laborers hired by a wealthy couple (played by Lynn Collins and James Tupper). What they hope to be their biggest payday turns into a terrifying fight for survival at the couple’s secluded mansion, and those thought to be helpless must prove they can’t be discarded so easily.”
Beneath Us opens in select theaters on March 6, 2020.
