Danish horror film What We Become hits home video in October
Stay home. Lock up. Don’t breathe. Because the ultra-tense and unrelenting Danish thriller What We Become is coming to Blu-ray and DVD from Scream Factory (in conjunction with IFC Midnight) on October 18, just in time for Halloween. Fans of this shockingly dark film can pre-order their copies now.
The film played to rave reviews at the 2015 Fantastic Fest and the trailer promises an outbreak shocker that’s dark, serious, moody and driven by the plights of a solid cabal of characters.
Here’s the synopsis: The Johansson family — mom, dad, their rebellious teenage son, and young daughter — are looking forward to a quiet summer in their idyllic suburban town. But in the blink of an eye, things go from blissful to berserk when a horrifying plague tears through the community. After a string of grisly deaths, the government puts the neighborhood on lockdown. But one thing soon becomes terrifyingly clear: you can’t quarantine the apocalypse. This nightmarish, blood-soaked shocker establishes sharply drawn, recognizably real characters—and then watches what happens when they’re put through the wringer to survive.
What We Become is directed by Bo Mikkelsen and stars Mille Dinesen, Troels Lyby and Ole Dupont.
