From A24, the studio that brought us Hereditary and The Witch comes a new tale of terror, High Life, starring Robert Pattinson and Juliette Binoche. In the film, “Monte (Pattinson) and his baby daughter are the last survivors of a damned and dangerous mission to the outer reaches of the solar system. The crew of death-row inmates led by a doctor (Binoche) with sinister motives has vanished. As the mystery of what happened onboard the ship is unraveled, father and daughter must rely on each other to survive as they hurtle toward the oblivion of a black hole. A staggering and primal film about love and intimacy, suffused with anguished memories of a lost Earth, High Life is a haunting, thrilling achievement from visionary director Claire Denis.” Musician/actor André Benjamin (aka Outcast’s André 3000) also stars along with Mia Goth. Written by Denis and Jean-Pol Fargeau, High Life opens in theaters on April 12, 2019.

The Curse of La Llorona has a fantastically frightening trailer. It looks we can expect another horror masterpiece from producer James Wan. The film follows a social worker who, while investigating the mysterious disappearance of two children, discovers her own family might also be in jeopardy. Did you know that the film is based on a legend? The Curse of La Llorona is inspired by the centuries-old Mexican folk legend of “The Weeping Woman”. In the tale, a beautiful woman named Maria meets and marries a handsome young man. After she bore him twin boys, he leaves her for another woman. One night Maria drowns her children in the Rio Grande river in anger after seeing him with his lover. Following the death of her children, she was found dead by the river. La Llorona is said to haunt the river weeping for her children. She walks the river’s banks in a long white dress, shouting “Mis niños! Donde están
