Some wrong turns last forever.
Gen Z horror hangout movieIt Ends is now playing in select theaters before expanding nationwide on August 28, and NEON has unveiled a final trailer that packs in the accolades.
It Endsmarks the feature debut by writer-directorAlexander Ullom.
A group of recent grads heads out on a late-night drive for grub, hoping to enjoy one final hangout before their paths diverge. Instead, they accidentally turn onto a never-ending, two-lane hellscape surrounded by untold horrors and cosmic forces beyond their understanding. Cramped together inside a Jeep Cherokee and with the miles stretching infinitely ahead, they face a choice: embrace their new existence or fight to escape it.

“This was always a movie that was more about how we live with horror than about the actual horror.I make this joke too much, but I always wanted to see the family inHereditary give a postgame interview andjust be like, ‘Yeah, that was terrifying. That was absolutely terrifying.’Then, they all die, obviously, but like they go about their lives. The movie is constantly recontextualizing the things that happen in it,” AlexanderUllompreviously told BD.
Alexander Ullom is already a filmmaker to watch; the newcomer was recently tapped to helm4 X 4: The Event, which is being described asBattle RoyalemeetsSawmeetsClimax.
