It’s been eight years since the Netflix release of Mike Flanagan’s home invasion horror movie Hush, but it’s interesting to note that the film is no longer streaming on Netflix. In fact, it’s currently unavailable to stream or rent/purchase ANYWHERE, and we’ve also never gotten a physical media release. In other words, you cannot watch Hush at all right now.
But that’s soon going to change, Mike Flanagan promises. Flanagan and his team have re-acquired the rights to Hush, and it’s soon headed to streaming and physical media as well!
Flanagan explained to Slash Film at a recent event, “We took it back because I really value physical media. And Netflix, by policy, it does not work in their business plan. So we took it back. We do have a new home for it. I can’t say where. I can say there will be a physical release, and that there will be a lot of really awesome surprises that we’ve been working on for a year to make this release awesome. It’s something that will be really exciting.”
“If you’ve been looking for Hush and it’s nowhere to be found, it will be back soon. It will be everywhere,” he adds. “You’ll be able to stream it. You’ll be able to have it in your collection, and it’s gonna be worth the wait because we did some really awesome new stuff for it.”
In Hush, “A deaf and mute writer (Kate Siegel) who retreated into the woods to live a solitary life must fight for her life in silence when a masked killer appears at her window.”
Meagan Navarro wrote here on Bloody Disgusting a few years back, “A simple home invasion story done with style and skill, Hush may not reinvent the wheel, but it’s a great time. It’s a straightforward story, but with nail-biting tension, fantastic sound design, and visual flair that makes this cat and mouse thriller one that tends to leave you breathless.”
