Haunting Trailer for Naomi Watts' Upcoming Horror Thriller GOODNIGHT MOMMY
Amazon Prime Video has released the first trailer for the upcoming horror thriller Goodnight Mommy, which is a remake of the 2014 Austrian film by Veronika Franz and Severin Fiala. This new version of the movie was directed by Matt Sobel (Take Me To The River) from a script written by Kyle Warren, and it stars Naomi Watts.
In Goodnight Mommy, “When twin brothers (Cameron and Nicholas Crovetti) arrive at their mother’s (Watts) country home to discover her face covered in bandages—the result, she explains, of recent cosmetic surgery—they immediately sense that something doesn’t add up. She sets strange new house rules, smokes in her bathroom, and secretly rips up a drawing they gave her—things their loving mother would never do.
“As her behavior grows increasingly bizarre and erratic, a horrifying thought takes root in the boys’ minds: The sinking suspicion that the woman beneath the gauze, who’s making their food and sleeping in the next room, isn’t their mother at all.”
I haven’t seen the original film, but this definitely looks like it tells a haunting and demented story. The directors of the original film are producing the remake, and I’m interested in checking it out!
The movie also stars Jeremy Bobb (The Outsider), Crystal Lucas-Perry (Mimesis Nosferatu), and Peter Hermann (Younger). Goodnight Mommy comes to Amazon Prime Video on September 16, 2022.
