Lauren-Marie Taylor, who you’ll remember as Vickie from Friday the 13th Part 2 (1981), returns to the world of slasher movies in the upcoming In a Violent Nature, and Bloody Disgusting has learned that the actress will be appearing at a special screening this weekend.
Lauren-Marie Taylor will join Ry Barrett & Andrea Pavlovic at the New York Premiere of In a Violent Nature in NYC on Saturday, May 18. It’s taking place at Governors Island on 10 South Street, Slip 7, in New York, New York, presented in partnership with IFC & Shudder.

The unique arthouse slasher movie frames the slayings from the killer’s perspective, and audiences have already been losing their minds at the gory kills during preview screenings.
IFC Films will release In a Violent Nature exclusively in theaters on May 31, 2024, and you can expect the film to make its at-home debut on streaming service Shudder soon.
Watch the new trailer below for a sneak peek…
In the film, “When a locket is removed from a collapsed fire tower in the woods that entombs the rotting corpse of Johnny, a vengeful spirit spurred on by a horrific 60-year old crime, his body is resurrected and becomes hellbent on retrieving it. The undead golem hones in on the group of vacationing teens responsible for the theft and proceeds to methodically slaughter them one by one in his mission to get it back – along with anyone in his way.”
Chris Nash wrote and directed In a Violent Nature. Ry Barrett, Andrea Pavlovic, Cameron Love, Reece Presley, Liam Leone, Charlotte Creaghan, Lea Rose Sebastianis, Sam Roulston, Alexander Oliver, and Lauren Taylor star in the slasher film.
Meagan Navarro wrote in her Sundance review for Bloody Disgusting, “In a Violent Nature may offer slasher thrills and a delightfully gory rampage across the wilderness, but Nash’s approach captures the carnage through ambient realism. It results in a fascinating arthouse horror experiment that plays more like a minimalist slice-of-life feature with a grim twist.”
