IFC Midnight picked up the indie We Need to Do Something ahead of its Tribeca premiere and will release it in limited theaters and on PVOD this coming September 3, we’ve learned.

Additionally, we’ve been provided with the official trailer today, which traps a family inside their house during a tornado. Then again, maybe it’s not actually a tornado out there at all…

Directed by Sean King O’Grady, the film stars Sierra McCormick (The Vast of Night), Vinessa Shaw (Hocus Pocus, Eyes Wide Shut, The Hills Have Eyes), Pat Healy (Cheap Thrills, Compliance, The Innkeepers), newcomer Lisette Alexis, and John James Cronin (“NOS4A2”).

In We Need to Do Something, “After Melissa (McCormick) and her family (Shaw, Healy, Cronin) seek shelter from a storm, they become trapped. With no sign of rescue, hours turn to days and Melissa comes to realize that she and her girlfriend Amy (Alexis) might have something to do with the horrors that threaten to tear her family – and the entire world, apart.”

Joined by her cousin, Yuda, and his friends Jito and Arya, Mila arrives on the island only to discover that the village elder has passed away, and that the new guardian, Mbah Buyut, isn’t present.

“Various strange and eerie events occur while awaiting Mbah Buyut’s return, including Mila being visited by Badarawuhi, a mysterious, mythical being who rules the village. When she decides to return the Kawaturih without the help of Mgah Buyut, Mila threatens the village’s safety, and she must join a ritual to select the new ‘Dawuh,’ a cursed soul forced to dance for the rest of her life.”
