"In this intense and heart pounding supernatural thriller, Jessie (Kate Bosworth) and Mark (Thomas Jane) decide to take in a sweet and loving 8-year-old boy, Cody.

In one moment they experience the incredible wonder of Cody's imagination, and in the next, the horrific nature of his night terrors. To save their new family, Jessie and Mark embark on a dangerous hunt to uncover the truth behind Cody's nightmares.

Freaks UK Theatrical Re-Release: According to ScreenDaily, Hollywood Classics is set to re-release Tod Browning’s Freaks in UK theaters this June. Here's an excerpt from what Hollywood Classics told ScreenDaily:

“Under our relationship with certain studios, we can create DCPs for selected features that we feel will be of particular interest to a discerning audience.

“Tod Browning’s Freaks is widely considered of great cinematic importance, reflecting the macabre historical fascination of travelling freak shows - however the feature isn’t widely available on home entertainment or TV/VOD in the UK."

Synopsis: "A circus' beautiful trapeze artist agrees to marry the leader of side-show performers, but his deformed friends discover she is only marrying him for his inheritance."
