Suspiria remake (watch it HERE) director Luca Guadagnino’s horror film / cannibal love story Bones and All will be receiving a theatrical release on November 23rd, and a featurette has arrived online to introduce Maren, a cannibal character played by Taylor Russell (Escape Room). The featurette can be found at the bottom of this article.
Directed by Guadagnino from a screenplay by his Suspiria collaborator David Kajganich, Bones and All also stars Timothée Chalamet (Dune). The film tells the story of
first love between Maren (Russell), a young woman learning how to survive on the margins of society, and Lee (Chalamet), an intense and disenfranchised drifter, as they meet and join together for a thousand-mile odyssey which takes them through the back roads, hidden passages and trap doors of Ronald Reagan’s America. But despite their best efforts, all roads lead back to their terrifying pasts and to a final stand that will determine whether their love can survive their otherness.
Described as a “coming-of-age horror story” and a “horror love story”, the film follows
Maren Yearly on a cross-country trip as she searches for the father she’s never met in an attempt to understand why she has the urge to kill and eat the people that love her.
Chalamet and Russell are joined in the cast by Mark Rylance, André Holland, Michael Stuhlbarg, Francesca Scorsese, Anna Cobb, Chloë Sevigny, Halloween 2018 / Halloween Kills director David Gordon Green, and original Suspiria star Jessica Harper.
