After terrifying audiences with Terrified back in 2017, filmmaker Demián Rugna is back with new horror movie When Evil Lurks, and Variety has shared a first-look image today (above).
Described as a “rural possession thriller,” When Evil Lurks is being co-produced by Shudder and Argentina’s La Puerta Roja, and Variety notes that the movie will wrap in early 2023.
In the film, “Two brothers find a mutilated corpse near their property and convene with the locals to suss it out. They learn that the odd happenings in their village are the cause of a spirit that’s found its way into a local man waiting for the proper protocols to rid his body of the festering demon. An escape attempt ensues as the film keeps its protagonists on-edge, racing against imminent danger to shake the spirit’s relentless clutches.”
Variety’s report also notes, “A highly inventive play on a common horror theme, the film aims at fear itself and its manifestation within us. Chaotic and tense, Rugna achieves infinite momentum throughout the maelstrom, never a lapse in on-screen frenzy.”
When Evil Lurks will be Shudder’s first Spanish-language original.
