One of the most disturbing European horror movies of recent years,
Speak No Evil, now gets an English language remake courtesy of Blumhouse. Written and
directed by James Watkins, of the equally disturbing
Eden Lake, this version replaces the Danish and Dutch families of the original with
American and British families.
Mackenzie Davis and Scoot McNairy play an American couple who
accept an invitation to stay at the home of a British couple (James McAvoy
and Aisling Franciosi). The initial awkward culture clash is soon
replaced by suspicions of something darker at play.
Speak No Evil is in cinemas later this year.
Check out the first trailer and poster below.
The official synopsis reads:
When an American family is invited to spend the weekend at the idyllic country estate of a charming British family they befriended on vacation, what begins as a dream holiday soon warps into a snarled psychological nightmare.
