The Austrian chiller GOODNIGHT MOMMY, from Severin Fiala & Veronika Franz, is shaping up to be this year's BABADOOK. Artfully handled and skillfully terrifying, this flick is just another link in the chain of foreign cinema that proves that Hollywood horror needs to step up their game. In this new clip, which is too sinister to spoil, a long period of tension is sliced by a frankly unforgettable image. You've gotta see it to believe it. There's a bit of a long ad that plays first, but trust me it's worth it. Check it out below!
In the heat of the summer lays a lonesome house in the countryside where nine year old twin brothers await their mother’s return. When she comes home, bandaged after cosmetic surgery, nothing is like before and the children start to doubt whether this woman is actually who she says she is.
GOODNIGHT MOMMY, starring Susanne Wuest, Elias Schwarz, and Lukas Schwarz, will tear into theaters on September 11th.
