Evil wants to be seen in the trailer for Watcher, a new horror movie starring Maika Monroe (It Follows, The Guest).
Watcher was directed by Chloe Okuno, who directed the “Storm Drain” segment of V/H/S/94. The film follows Julia (Munro), who relocates to Romania when her husband gets a new job. Having recently abandoned her acting career, Julia finds herself frequently alone and unoccupied. One night, people-watching from her picture window, she spots a vague figure in an adjacent building, who seems to be looking back at her.
Soon after, while alone at a local movie theatre, Julia’s sense of being watched intensifies, and she becomes certain she’s being followed. Could it be the same unknown neighbour? Meanwhile, a serial killer known as The Spider stalks the city…
Karl Glusman (The Neon Demon), Burn Gorman (Crimson Peak), and Ciubuciu Bogdan Alexandru also star in Watcher, which was written by Okuno and Zack Ford. IFC Midnight releases the film in select theatres in the US on June 3rd ahead of its VOD release on June 21st.
Watch the trailer below, but be warned… It may be staring back at you…
