Bodies Bodies Bodies poster unveiled, trailer arrives online tomorrow

Last Updated on April 26, 2022

The A24 slasher Bodies Bodies Bodies is scheduled for an August 5th theatrical release, and today the company has unveiled a poster for the film. You can check that out at the bottom of this article – and if you’re interested in Bodies Bodies Bodies, you’ll want to keep an eye out for the trailer that A24 says they’ll be releasing online tomorrow!

A24 first purchased Kristen Roupenian’s Bodies Bodies Bodies spec script back in March of 2018. The script was said to show “heightened sensitivity to character development and social dynamics in a subversive way”, and was described as 

a shrewd character study where mystery and deep-seated scares blended in such a way that the company saw an opportunity to make a horror movie that could also be culturally relevant.

The script got some touch-up work from Sarah Delappe, Chloe Okuno, Joshua Sharp, and Aaron Jackson in the time between acquisition when it went into production with Halina Reijn, who made her feature directorial debut with the 2019 Dutch thriller Instinct, at the helm. The film has the following synopsis:

When a group of rich 20-somethings plan a hurricane party at a remote family mansion, a party game turns deadly in this fresh and funny look at backstabbing, fake friends, and one party gone very, very wrong.

Bodies Bodies Bodies stars Amandla Stenberg (The Hate U Give), Maria Bakalova (Borat Subsequent Moviefilm), Pete Davidson (The King of Staten Island), Rachel Sennott (Shiva Baby), Myha’la Herrold (Industry), Chase Sui Wonders (Generation), Conner O’Malley (Palm Springs), and Lee Pace (Guardians of the Galaxy).

Bodies Bodies Bodies had its world premiere at the 2022 SXSW Film Festival back in March, and with the twenty reviews that are linked on Rotten Tomatoes it currently has a 95% fresh rating. The film has been rated R for “violence, bloody images, drug use, sexual references and pervasive language“.

I’m always on board to watch a new slasher movie, so I look forward to seeing the trailer for Bodies Bodies Bodies tomorrow, especially after seeing this eerie poster. In the meantime, here’s the poster:
