Dark supernatural shocker SHELLEY drops new trailer.
One look at the trailer – and the baroque poster – for director Ali Abbasi’s SHELLEY and we know that this is the sort of sick, slow, strange horror movie that we like. A movie about adults made for adults, dark and leaking menace from every orifice.
IFC Midnight will release the shivery “mother macabre” opus on July 29th in theaters and on VOD.
Here’s the synopsis:
An unholy force takes root in an expectant mothers womb in this eerie, dread-inducing shocker. Privileged, nouveau-eco-hippies Louise (Ellen Dorrit Petersen) and Kasper (Peter Christoffersen) live off the grid in a remote home in the woods. Unable to conceive, the couple arranges for their immigrant maid, Elena (Cosmina Stratan), to act as a surrogate mother in exchange for payment. But as Elena becomes mysteriously sicker with each passing day, fears mount about what may be growing inside her.
What do you think? Does SHELLEY sound like your cup of cord blood?
