Dan Berk and Robert Olsen's dark comedy thriller VILLAINS starring Bill Skarsgard (IT) and Maika Monroe (IT FOLLOWS) premiered at the SXSW Film Festival earlier this year and today we have word that ALTER, Gunpowder & Sky’s horror brand, will unleash the flick next month. You can go ahead and check out the movie's trailer above and its poster below and then make sure to hit us up and let us know what you think!
The flick centers on:
Mickey and Jules who are lovers on the run, headed southbound for a fresh start in the Sunshine State. When their car dies after a gas station robbery, they break into a nearby house looking for a new set of wheels. What they find instead is a dark secret and a sweet-as-pie pair of homeowners who will do anything to keep it from getting out.
I'm more than a little interested in checking this movie out if only for the cast. As a horror fan, combining the talents behind such recent neo-classics as STEPHEN KING'S IT and IT FOLLOWS sounds like the recipe for something special. Add in solid thespians like Kyra Sedgwick (THE WOODSMAN, THE POSSESSION), and Jeffrey Donovan (BURN NOTICE, BLAIR WITCH 2: BOOK OF SHADOWS) and I'm already buying my tickets tonight.
The comedy-crime-thriller is directed by Dan Berk and Robert Olsen from a screenplay they wrote together. Trevor White, Tim White, Garrick Dion, and Allan Mandelbaum produced and Aaron Gilbert, Kevin Turen, Chadd Harbold, and Per Melita served as the movie's executive producers. ALTER, Gunpowder & Sky’s horror brand, will unleash the flick in theaters nationwide on September 20th.
