Premiering as part of the Midnight Madness slate at this year’s Toronto International Film Festival (TIFF), Sick brings Scream and I Know What You Did Last Summer writer Kevin Williamson back into the slasher arena. John Hyams (Universal Soldier: Day of Reckoning, “Black Summer”) directed Sick from a story by Williamson, and it’s being described as a “lean, mean, and wickedly timely slasher.” How timely? Sick is set during the pandemic.
Collider has shared the very first clip from the Williamson-penned Sick today, and it’s a tense little scene that we can’t help but compare to Scream. The ring of a doorbell begins a home invasion from a masked killer, who has already found his way inside the house…
Watch Collider’s exclusive clip below and expect more soon.
In Sick, “As the pandemic steadily brings the world to a halt, Parker and her best friend Miri decide to quarantine at the family lake house alone – or so they think.”
Gideon Adlon (Blockers, The Craft: Legacy) and Bethlehem Million (And Just Like That) star.
IMDb also lists Katelyn Crabb as the writer, with Williamson getting story credit.
TIFF 2022 runs from September 8-18, 2022.
