Get ready for a chilling journey into the heart of terror with Come Home, a gripping new horror film coming to UK digital platforms on December 9, 2024, courtesy of Miracle Media. This atmospheric cabin-in-the-woods thriller has already made waves, winning Best Film at the Ravenna Nightmare Film Festival. With its haunting story and powerful performances, it promises to leave audiences on edge.
The film stars Chinaza Uche (A Good Person, Silo), Sathya Sridharan (The Whale, Kaleidoscope), and Paton Ashbrook (House of Cards, Shameless). Directed by Nicole Pursell (The Ring Things) and Caitlin Zoz (Silo, How to Rob), who also take on lead roles, Come Home is an intense exploration of fear and survival.
The story follows newlyweds Mel (Zoz) and Ikenna (Uche) as they inherit a secluded family cabin in the remote Adirondack Mountains. Looking for a break from their hectic New York lives, they invite their friends Taylor (Ashbrook) and Arjun (Sridharan) to join them for a peaceful getaway. What begins as a hopeful retreat soon turns into a nightmare when strange and unexplainable events disturb their stay.
Something dangerous is lurking in the woods, and as the group realizes they are being hunted, paranoia takes over. Is it a human threat, or is there something supernatural in the forest? As fear mounts and their bonds are tested, they are drawn into a horrifying trap that makes them question if they will ever make it home.
Come Home is a masterclass in building tension. The directors skillfully blend psychological suspense with visceral scares, creating a movie that is as thought-provoking as it is terrifying. The remote Adirondack setting is brought to life with stunning yet eerie cinematography that captures the isolation and danger of the wilderness. The performances from the cast add depth and believability to the story, making the terror feel all too real.
Fans of films like The Witch and The Ritual will find much to love in Come Home. This is horror at its most gripping and unsettling. Mark your calendars for December 9 and prepare for a film that will have you looking over your shoulder long after the credits roll. Will they escape the nightmare, or will they never come home again?
