Description:
A24 has dropped many horror hits over the years and The Front Rooms first trailer already has me gripped.

FULL STORY ======================================================================

A24 make some of the best horror movies with recent titles like Hereditary
and Beau is Afraid exploring themes around complicated families, especially when it comes to mothers, and it seems like its upcoming film The Front Room will follow in their footsteps going by a new trailer.

The new movie s official trailer (see below) centers on a young couple forced to take in the husbands estranged stepmother but unwanted guests are a pain and this one is no exception. Were introduced to Belinda (Brandy Norwood) who learns her husbands father died in an accident, and one of his last wishes
was for his wife (played by Kathryn Hunter) to go and live with his son if anything happened to him. Belinda and her husband are not thrilled by the idea, but soon realise that if they dont welcome her mother-in-law into their home, her husband will be cut out of the will.

While it may sound like a bit of an inconvenience, theres a lot more going on here and it starts to get very A24 with creepy visuals all over the place.
The couple find out that shes hiding some pretty dark secrets and is incredibly self-interested, bossing her way around the home. What do we know about The Front Room?

The Front Room hits theaters on September 6, 2024. While its too early to reveal an official streaming release date yet, we can assume it will arrive
on Max given A24s multi-year deal with Warner Bros. Discovery . Once we have some clarity on that, well update you.

The movie is the directorial debut for Max and Sam Eggers, and if youre thinking hang on, that name sounds familiar, youd be right. They are the brothers of Robert Eggers who is well known for his work on The Witch and The Lighthouse , and it seems like all three brothers are horror aficionados.

Theyve got a different style, though. The Front Room is very much a modern
day horror that plays on some religious and occult tropes, as we see the mother-in-law behaving very strangely throughout the trailer. Belinda is pregnant with the couples first child, too, so expect motherhood to be a very prominent theme with this one.
