In a Violent Nature: One of the standout horror films at this year’s Sundance Festival was “In a Violent Nature,” a distinctive arthouse slasher that unfolds the killings from the perspective of the perpetrator.
Produced by the streaming service Shudder, this upcoming horror flick delves into “the enigmatic resurrection, rampage, and retribution of an undead monster in a remote wilderness.” The eerie official teaser trailer provides a glimpse into this chilling narrative.
The storyline revolves around the removal of a locket from a collapsed fire tower, unleashing the vengeful spirit of Johnny, a rotting corpse fueled by a 60-year-old crime. Resurrected and driven by a mission, Johnny relentlessly pursues a group of vacationing teens responsible for the locket theft, methodically slaughtering them to retrieve his possession, and anyone in his path.
“In a Violent Nature” is both written and directed by Chris Nash, featuring a cast including Ry Barrett, Andrea Pavlovic, Cameron Love, Reece Presley, Liam Leone, Charlotte Creaghan, Lea Rose Sebastianis, Sam Roulston, Alexander Oliver, and Lauren Taylor.
While no official release date has been announced, the film is anticipated to hit screens in 2024. Samuel Zimmerman, Shudder’s vice president of programming, expressed excitement about the movie, stating, “In a Violent Nature is a tremendous new slasher. We’re thrilled for you to meet Johnny, whose reign of terror honors the iconic subgenre while taking audiences on a singular and brutal new journey within it. Chris Nash’s bold perspective represents the best of Shudder, marrying the genre’s traditions with its exhilarating next steps.”
Meagan Navarro, in her review for Bloody Disgusting, described “In a Violent Nature” as a captivating slasher that combines thrills and a gory rampage with ambient realism. Nash’s approach transforms the film into a fascinating arthouse horror experiment, playing out like a minimalist slice-of-life feature with a grim twist.
