Shudder has released the trailer and poster for Vincent Grashaw's southern gothic horror, What Josiah Saw.
A family with buried secrets reunite at a farmhouse after two decades to pay for their past sins.
I caught What Josiah Saw when it played at Fantasia. While the production chose a pull quote that was a bit peppier, for means of selling the movie to you in a 'We absolutely trust Andrew's opinions on everything he watches kind of way' I do like what I wrote near the end of my review.
What Josiah Saw screams at you with quiet violence. There is so much more that we want to talk about but there is so much for everyone to discover at every turn in Grashaw’s tremendously tense and terrifying horror thriller. We would rather not spoil it for the rest of you. Come for the performances, stay for the horror and terror. This is a terrific first time screenplay from Robert Alan Dilts which asks hard questions about funamentalist faith, mental health and addiction, and toxic family attachments.
You'll find the trailer below the formal announcement.
