Last year, they brought horror to a family’s cabin in the woods. Now, they’re bringing it to another family’s doorstep, this time at their house. The Guest, the next film from director Adam Wingard and writer Simon Barrett—the makers of You’re Next—will open in theaters this September. In the meantime, the first full-length trailer has dropped by for a visit.
From PictureHouse, The Guest will stop by theaters on September 17th. We have the synopsis and full-length trailer (courtesy of Yahoo! Movies):
"From the director of YOU’RE NEXT and featuring a standout, badass performance from Dan Stevens (“Downton Abbey”), comes THE GUEST: a tense, action-packed and unpredictable film like everything and nothing you've ever seen before. Empire Magazine called it "a demented action-horror hybrid of sci-fi conspiracy thriller and gore-fest", and Vanity Fair said, “THE GUEST is big, it’s bold, it’s badass, full of flavor Hollywood wishes it could pour over its vanilla blockbusters."
"A soldier (Dan Stevens) introduces himself to the Peterson family, claiming to be a friend of their son who died in action. After the young man is welcomed into their home, a series of accidental deaths seem to be connected to his presence."
Directed by Adam Wingard and written by Simon Barrett, The Guest stars Dan Stevens, Maika Monroe, Leland Orser, Sheila Kelley, Brendan Meyer, and Lance Reddick.
