Nicolas Cage Battles Monsters in The Trailer For The Creature Feature ARCADIAN
The first trailer has dropped for the new horror thriller Arcadian, which sees Nicolas Cage battling terrifying creatures that come out at night.
In Arcadian, “After a catastrophic event depopulates the world, a father and his two sons must survive their dystopian environment while being threatened by mysterious creatures that emerge at night.”
The story is set in a near future, where “normal life on Earth has been decimated. Paul and his two sons, Thomas and Joseph, have been living a half-life – tranquility by day and torment by night. Every night, after the sun sets, they face the unrelenting attacks of a mysterious and violent evil. One day, when Thomas doesn’t return home before sundown, Paul must leave the safety of their fortified farm to find him. A nightmarish battle ensues that forces the family to execute a desperate plan to survive.”
Ben Brewer (The Trust) directed the film, and it also stars Jaeden Martell (IT), Maxwell Jenkins (Lost in Space) and Sadie Soverall (Fate: The Winx Saga). The movie has A Quiet Place kind of vibe to it, but it still looks like a wild creature feature!
RLJE’s Mark Ward hyped up the film, saying: “Michael Nilon’s script deftly balances between the riveting thrills of a creature feature and the hopeful heart at the core of Paul’s family, played to perfection by Cage, Martel, and Jenkins.”
Arcadian will be released on April 12th.
