A disturbingly creepy teaser trailer has just dropped for indie horror The Remedy, and first impressions if that it’s certainly something to look out for.
The same way as possessions seem to be something to look out for when you’re prescribing an ancient herbal remedy that binds spirits (or maybe actual demons) with the diseases of your loved ones. Wut.
Before we go any further, here’s the official description:
Jason is a devoted son caring for his ill mother, Maria. Exhausted, isolated, and sleep-deprived, he begins to suffer from vivid nightmares of a monstrous entity devouring his mother. As his grip on reality loosens, the horrors of his dreams begin to seep into his waking life. At the same time, his estranged sister Rachel, recently released from psychiatric care, becomes convinced that an unseen evil has taken root in their home. Turning to forbidden spiritual practices for protection, she finds herself at odds with Jason, who dismisses her warnings as delusion.
When Jason resorts to an obscure, ancient remedy in a desperate attempt to heal Maria, the results are both miraculous and deeply unsettling. As her health begins to improve, disturbing occurrences escalate around them, hinting that something unnatural may have been unleashed. As paranoia, family tensions, and supernatural forces converge, Jason is drawn into a terrifying descent. With no one left to trust, he must face the growing evil within the house—and within himself—before it’s too late.
The teaser trailer was unveiled by Film Seekers ahead of The Remedy‘s official premiere at the SXSW London Film Festival in June – and fingers crossed it’ll bag some distribution deals when that happens.
Here’s what director Alex Kahuam had to say about the release of the teaser:
“I’m beyond excited to give horror fans a first look at the teaser for The Remedy, a genre film that blends psychological tension and supernatural eeriness.”
The Remedy stars Timothy Granaderos, alongside London Thor, Chris Mulkey, Jenny O’Hara, Dana Sparks, and Doug Jones (this last one, I’m especially excited about!).
We’ll let you know more about the film’s release… when we know.
What do you think of the teaser trailer for The Remedy? Are you excited about hopefully being able to watch this one on the big screen? Fingers crossed!
