NEON has released the first unsettling trailer for Tilman Singer’s sophomore horror feature Cuckoo, starring Hunter Schafer. See the trailer below!
Reluctantly, 17-year-old Gretchen (Schafer) leaves her American home to live with her father, who has just moved into a resort in the German Alps with his new family. Arriving at their future residence, they are greeted by Mr. König (Dan Stevens), her father’s boss, who takes an inexplicable interest in Gretchen’s mute half-sister Alma. Something doesn’t seem right in this tranquil vacation paradise. Gretchen is plagued by strange noises and bloody visions until she discovers a shocking secret that also concerns her own family.
Also starring in the film are Jessica Henwick, Jan Bluthardt, Marton Csokas, Greta Fernández and Àstrid Bergès-Frisbey. Singer writes and directs the film, which premiered at Berlin International Film Festival earlier this year before screening at South by Southwest.
Cuckoo is set for release in cinemas August, 2024.
