In A Violent Nature Shows Horror Through Slasher’s Eyes
Premiering at Sundance on January 22, 2024, In A Violent Nature gives the slasher film a real twist by telling the story through the killer’s eyes. Now, we have a poster to admire.
Shudder has acquired the streaming rights, but no date for its release is yet set, but Samuel Zimmerman, the company’s vice president of programming, is excited for the film, written and directed by Chris Nash.
“In a Violent Nature is a tremendous new slasher,” he says. “We’re thrilled for you to meet Johnny, whose reign of terror honors the iconic subgenre while taking audiences on a singular and brutal new journey within it. Chris Nash’s bold perspective represents the best of Shudder, marrying the genre’s traditions with its exhilarating next steps.”
The synopsis states: 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.
Expect the film to debut on Shudder sometime in 2024.
