Chilling New Trailer For ‘The Night House’, One of the Year’s Best Horror Films [Video]
It’s about time you know David Bruckner‘s name. The dude is a force and has already delivered the awesome indie The Signal, not to mention the excellent and criminally under-appreciated The Ritual, which was acquired by Netflix out of the Sundance Film Festival. He’s also behind one of the most memorable V/H/S segments – “I like you” – not to mention the crazy surgery sequence in Southbound. And while he’s prepping a remake of Hellraiser for Spyglass and Hulu, horror fans are in for a treat with his remarkable The Night House, a supernatural horror for the arthouse crowd. The movie is a banger and one of the best of the year.
With The Night House set for release in just a few weeks, Disney’s Searchlight has released a brand new trailer that is as spoiler-free as you can get, but still offers up a taste of how atmospheric and chilling the film truly is.
“The Night House follows a widow (Rebecca Hall) who begins to uncover her recently deceased husband’s disturbing secrets.”
Ben Collins & Luke Piotrowski (Super Dark Times, Hellraiser, SiREN) wrote the script.
“The Night House is a standout film… It’s moody and atmospheric, but above all, it’s scary as hell,” wrote Meagan Navarro in her review out of the Sundance premiere.
Horror fans can enter The Night House on August 20.
We had learned about an interesting horror project earlier this month titled Wolf Night, a werewolf movie set to be directed by Jonathan Liebesman (Darkness Falls, The Texas Chainsaw Massacre: The Beginning). The film has been compared to both District 9 and The Purge… with werewolves… and Deadline brings us a big update this week.
The hot Platinum Dunes package has been picked up by Screen Gems, Deadline informs us, with Michael Bay and Brad Fuller producing Wolf Night for Platinum Dunes.
Will Honley and April Maguire wrote the screenplay for Wolf Night, but aside from the comparisons to the aforementioned movies, the plot is under wraps at this time.
Jonathan Liebesman’s directorial credits over the years also include Rings (2005), The Killing Room (2009), Wrath of the Titans (2012), and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (2014).
Will Honley recently wrote Escape Room: Tournament of Champions.
Steven C. Miller’s Werewolves and Larry Fessenden’s Blackout are also headed our way this year, suggesting we’re in store for a full-on resurgence of the werewolf movie here in 2024.
That howl you hear? That’s music to our ears. Stay tuned for more.
