A trailer has arrived online for the psychological thriller Homebound, which Brainstorm Media will be releasing in select theatres and On Demand on Friday, May 13th. You can check out the trailer in the embed above to see if this looks like a movie you’ll want to watch next month.
The feature debut of writer/director Sebastian Godwin, Homebound follows
Holly, a young woman who travels with her new husband to meet his estranged family, only to find his ex-wife is missing and the children behaving in strange ways.
That’s the short synopsis. If you want more information, there’s also this much longer synopsis:
Holly’s excited to finally meet fiancé Richard’s three children for the first time at a birthday celebration for his youngest. Taking place at his ex-wife’s secluded home in the English countryside, Holly is nervous at the proposition of being a stepmom and eager to make a good impression on the children and his ex. However, when they arrive, circumstances are far from ideal. She’s not much older than Richard’s eldest daughter, and the reception she receives from the two teenagers, Lucia and Ralph, is decidedly frosty. Richard’s ex is nowhere to be found, and the children are reluctant to share any more details about their mom’s whereabouts. Holly and Richard decide to stay until she comes home with Richard overzealously trying to lighten the mood by taking the kids swimming, throwing a raucous party for his youngest daughter Anna, and trying to be the cool, permissive parent who lets his kids get drunk off champagne. But as the days pass with no sign of the children’s mother, the children become more and more hostile to Holly, and her suspicions begin to mount. What at first appeared to be typical teenage angst escalates rapidly, until it is perfectly clear that something is very wrong in this house.
Homebound stars Aisling Loftus, Tom Goodman-Hill, Hattie Gotobed, Raffiella Chapman, and Lukas Rolfe. The film was produced by Hugo Godwin.
