Trailer for Emile Hirsch's Crazy-Looking Sci-Fi Thriller FREAKS

Here’s an unsettling trailer for an upcoming sci-fi thriller called Freaks. The film stars Emile Hirsch (Alpha Dog, Into the Wild), Lexy Kolker (Shooter), and Bruce Dern (The Hateful Eight, Nebraska), as well as Amanda Crew (Sex Drive, Silicon Valley) and Grace Park (Battlestar Galactica, A Million Little Things).

The trailer shows us a world where either the world has gone mad, or the man inside this house has. The man is played by Hirsch, and he is looking a little nutty. It’s hard to tell if he is paranoid or using safety precautions. He keeps the house pretty locked down and has a daughter he is trying to protect from the outside world. We don’t really know what is wrong out there, but it is pretty intriguing.

Here’s the synopsis:

Kept locked inside the house by her father, 7-year-old Chloe lives in fear and fascination of the outside world, where Abnormals create a constant threat – or so she believes. When a mysterious stranger offers her a glimpse of what’s really happening outside, Chloe soon finds that while the truth isn’t so simple, the danger is very real.

Check out the trailer below and let us know if you’ll be seeing Freaks on August 23rd.
