Filmax has had its share of great horror films in the past ([REC], Sleep Tight, Darkness, Muse, Summer Camp, The Darkness, The Machinist) and continues to bring the goods by acquiring the psychological thriller Visitor, which is about to head to the forthcoming American Film Market.

Bloody has got the first clip for the film in which a woman in the middle of a marital crisis is stalked by an unknown entity on return to her hometown. It’s got all kinds of The Invisible Man vibes!

In the film…

Marga, who’s in the middle of a marital crisis with her husband Daniel, decides to spend a few days alone in her old, family home. Once there, she starts to sense some strange and terrifying phenomena happening around her: an invisible entity seems to know a lot about her, among other things, that she’s having an affair with Carlos, an old friend from college.

“Marga has fallen pregnant by Carlos and on the day she’s going to have a secret abortion, the entity won’t let her leave the house. On the verge of madness, Marga discovers a portal in the house that leads to another reality. In this reality lives her other self and she’s actually trying to warn herself that something terrible is about to happen to her, unless she makes a decision…

The directorial debut of Alberto Evangeliom, the film stars Iria del Río, from Spanish riot police drama “Antidisturbios,” Miquel Fernández (“Adú”), Jan Cornet (The Skin I Live In) and Sandra Cervera.

Dev Patel’s ‘Monkey Man’ Is Now Available to Watch at Home!

After pulling in $28 million at the worldwide box office this month, director (and star) Dev Patel’s critically acclaimed action-thriller Monkey Man is now available to watch at home.

You can rent Monkey Man for $19.99 or digitally purchase the film for $24.99!

Monkey Man is currently 88% Fresh on Rotten Tomatoes, with Bloody Disgusting’s head critic Meagan Navarro awarding the film 4.5/5 stars in her review out of SXSW back in March.

Meagan raves, “While the violence onscreen is palpable and painful, it’s not just the exquisite fight choreography and thrilling action set pieces that set Monkey Man apart but also its political consciousness, unique narrative structure, and myth-making scale.”

“While Monkey Man pays tribute to all of the action genre’s greats, from the Indonesian action classics to Korean revenge cinema and even a John Wick joke or two, Dev Patel’s cultural spin and unique narrative structure leave behind all influences in the dust for new terrain,” Meagan’s review continues.

She adds, “Monkey Man presents Dev Patel as a new action hero, a tenacious underdog with a penetrating stare who bites, bludgeons, and stabs his way through bodies to gloriously bloody excess. More excitingly, the film introduces Patel as a strong visionary right out of the gate.”

Inspired by the legend of Hanuman, Monkey Man stars Patel as Kid, an anonymous young man who ekes out a meager living in an underground fight club where, night after night, wearing a gorilla mask, he is beaten bloody by more popular fighters for cash. After years of suppressed rage, Kid discovers a way to infiltrate the enclave of the city’s sinister elite. As his childhood trauma boils over, his mysteriously scarred hands unleash an explosive campaign of retribution to settle the score with the men who took everything from him.

Monkey Man is produced by Jordan Peele’s Monkeypaw Productions.
