The Last Thing Mary Saw: Stefanie Scott, Isabelle Fuhrman film comes to Shudder this month

Nearly five months have gone by since we heard that the Shudder streaming service had picked up the rights to release writer/director Edoardo Vitaletti’s religious horror film The Last Thing Mary Saw in North America, the U.K., Ireland, Australia, and New Zealand, and now we finally know when the movie is going to be reaching Shudder. The service’s subscribers will be able to start streaming it on January 20th.

Starring Stefanie Scott (Insidious: Chapter 3) and Isabelle Fuhrman (Orphan), The Last Thing Mary Saw is

a period occult drama set in an isolated farmhouse in the winter of 1843, where a young woman is under investigation following the mysterious death of her family’s matriarch. It soon becomes apparent that ageless forces are at play, from within and without.

And if you want to know more, here’s a longer synopsis:

Southold, New York, 1843: Young Mary, blood trickling from behind the blindfold tied around her eyes, is interrogated about the events surrounding her grandmother’s death. As the story jumps back in time, we witness Mary, raised in a repressively religious household, finding fleeting happiness in the arms of Eleanor, the home’s maid. Her family, who believe they are seeing, speaking, and acting on God’s behalf, view the girls’ relationship as an abomination, to be dealt with as severely as possible. The couple attempts to carry on in secret, but someone is always watching, or listening, and the wages of perceived sin threaten to become death, with the tension only heightened by the arrival of an enigmatic stranger and the revelation of greater forces at work.

Fuhrman and Scott are joined in the cast by Rory Culkin (Scream 4) and Judith Roberts (Dead Silence).

I got to watch The Last Thing Mary Saw last August, and while I wasn’t blown away by it (you can read my 6/10 review at THIS LINK), I’m glad to hear it’s finally about to be seen by a wider audience on Shudder.
