1091 Pictures will be bringing writer/director Perry Blackshear’s psychological horror film When I Consume You to VOD in the US, Canada, the UK, Ireland, Australia, and New Zealand on August 16th – and with that date just a couple weeks away, a trailer for the movie has arrived online. You can check it out in the embed above.
Libby Ewing (The Wedding Do Over) and Evan Dumouchel (Doctor Sleep) star in When I Consume You as
brother-sister duo Daphne and Wilson Shaw. Troubled since childhood, the two have struggled to find stability as they’ve grown older, and while Daphne seems to have finally gotten her life together, the darkness that’s followed their family all along begins to close in more aggressively than ever before.
MacLeod Andrews (A Ghost Waits) and Margaret Ying Drake (The Invoking: Paranormal Dimensions) are also in the cast. Blackshear produced the film with Andrews, Dumouchel, and Ewing.
When I Consume You is the third feature from Blackshear, who made his debut with the psychological horror film They Look Like People and followed that up with the aquatic supernatural horror romance The Siren. A press release contains the following description of the film: “A unique urban folktale set and filmed in Brooklyn, When I Consume You confronts the vulnerabilities that people struggle with every day through a genre lens to create a chillingly intimate indie horror nightmare.” In addition to being slotted into the horror genre, When I Consume You is described as a “heartfelt family drama about grief and redemption”.
