The New Horror Film From the Director of HEREDITARY is Coming Next Summer
Hereditary was one hell of a terrifying and disturbing horror film. The director of that movie, Ari Aster, has teamed up with A24 for a new horror movie and we’ve now learned that it will be released in the summer of 2019.
The untitled horror movie is said to tell the story about a vacation that goes horribly and violently wrong. The movie stars Jack Reynor (Kin) and Florence Pugh (Lady Macbeth) as “a couple that travels to Sweden to visit their friend’s rural hometown for its fabled mid-summer festival. What begins as an idyllic retreat quickly devolves into an increasingly violent and bizarre competition at the hands of a pagan cult.”
I imagine that the movie will at least be as disturbing as Hereditary. But who knows, maybe Aster will take it to an even more nightmarish level of insanity. When previously talking about the film to THR, the director said:
“I’m in pre-production for my next film which will be shooting in Hungary. A24 is doing that as well, and that is technically a horror film. It’s Scandinavian folk horror. That is the only other horror movie I have. And I’m pretty sure that’s going to be it for a long time.”
The movie will hit theaters on August 9, 2019 and I’m looking forward to seeing it! The movie also stars Will Poulter (The Maze Runner), Vilhelm Blomgren (Midsommer), William Jackson Harper (The Good Place), Ellora Torchia (Broadchurch) and Archie Madekwe (Legacy).
