"If you don't wake up, you're going to die." Based on Stephen King's novel of the same name (one of his most unsettling stories), Mike Flanagan's (Hush) latest film, Gerald's Game, is teased in a new trailer ahead of its September 29th premiere on Netflix.

Directed by Mike Flanagan from a screenplay he wrote with Jeff Howard (based on Stephen King's 1992 novel), Gerald's Game stars Carla Gugino, Bruce Greenwood, and Chiara Aurelia.

"Gerald’s Game follows Gerald and Jessie Burlingame, who have gone to their summer home on a warm weekday in October for a romantic interlude. After being handcuffed to her bedposts, Jessie tires of her husband's games, until things take an unexpectedly tragic turn. Still handcuffed, she is trapped and alone. Painful memories from her childhood bedevil her. Her only company is a hungry stray dog and the voices that populate her mind. As night comes, she is unsure whether it is her imagination or if she has another companion: someone watching her from the corner of her dark bedroom."
