Sundance has gone totally virtual so that means the usual crop of top notch midnight films will just have to be experienced in the safe, quiet, dark, not-at-all-creepy confines of your own home. One such films is the ultra disturbing-looking Finnish horror Hatching from Hanna Bergholm. The trailer has just dropped and it looks great. Here's the description.
12-year-old Tinja is desperate to please her mother, a woman obsessed with presenting the image of a perfect family. One night, Tinja finds a strange egg. What hatches is beyond belief.
There's gotta be a metaphor in there. Check out the trailer below.
IFC Midnight is bringing Hatching to VOD on April 29 if you can't catch it at Sundance.
