David Charbonier and Justin Powell (The Boy Behind the Door, The Djinn) are back with upcoming horror movie Push, and the film has found a home at Shudder this week.
The highly anticipated horror movie, which made its world premiere at the 2024 Sitges Film Festival and will make its U.S. premiere at Cinequest Film Festival in San Jose, California this weekend, will make its exclusive streaming debut on Shudder later this year.
Alicia Sanz (El Cid) and Raúl Castillo (Smile 2) lead the cast.
The film follows Natalie Flores (Sanz), a pregnant realtor who is attacked by a sadistic killer (Castillo) at her open house, sending her into premature labor. Up against a physiological ticking clock, Natalie must find a way to escape before she gives birth.
“With Push, David and Justin continue to hone their spectacular skill for intimate, visceral suspense,” said Sam Zimmerman, Head of Programming for Shudder. “After The Boy Behind the Door, we are thrilled to reteam with the dynamic duo on this frightening and surprising new spin on the home invasion genre.”
Written and directed by Charbonier and Powell, Push is produced by Ryan Scaringe and executive produced by Amy Lippens, Jilbert Daniel, Del Charbonier, Sanz and Castillo.
Meagan Navarro wrote in her festival review for BD, “Charbonier and Powell operate on a level that strips away all pretenses and excess, leaving nothing behind but a lean, mean home invasion thriller that plays like a breathless chase in a briskly paced 90-minute runtime.”
