If anything can undo what’s meant to be a relaxing, romantic getaway…it’s other people. Usually, they amount to little more than annoyances, but in the new horror Bone Lake, the unwanted guests turn out to be downright sinister.
The film stars Maddie Hasson, best known for her roles in the horror film Malignant and the apocalyptic actioner Elevation. Directed by Mercedes Bryce Morgan (Spoonful of Sugar, which we reviewed here), Bone Lake follows a couple forced to share their vacation at a romantic estate with a mysterious and sexy couple. Does it devolve into a nightmare? Of course it does, but at least there’s some sex, too, so it ain’t all bad.
Hasson is joined in the cast by Margo Pigossi, Alex Roe, Andra Nechita, Elaine Reis, and Clayton Spencer. Morgan directs from a screenplay by Joshua Friedlander.
SYNOPSIS: A couple’s romantic vacation at a secluded lakeside estate is upended when they are forced to share the mansion with a mysterious and attractive couple. In this darkly hilarious and seductive horror story, a dream getaway spirals into a nightmarish maze of sex, lies, and manipulation, bringing terrifying secrets to light and triggering a bloody battle for survival.
Bleecker Street will open Bone Lake in theaters on October 10th, as they are clearly hoping to hook the Halloween crowd.
