Jena Malone Reunites With ‘Ruins’ Director For Horror Film ‘Swallowed’

Nearly a year ago, we reported that director Crater Smith and actress Jena Malone are reuniting for the upcoming horror film Swallowed, which Smith describes as a “slimy wild queer horror nightmare of a movie.” The movie has just made its debut at the Overlook Film Festival, followed by the release of its trailer. In the indie film, “After a drug run goes bad – two childhood friends must survive a horrific night in a backwoods hell of drugs, bugs, and obscene intimacy in this queer horror nightmare.” Malone stars alongside Mark Patton (A Nightmare on Elm Street 2: Freddy’s Revenge), Cooper Koch (Power Book II: Ghost), Roe Pacheco (Bloody Pi), and newcomers Michael Shawn Curtis and Jose Colon.

A ‘Family Dinner’ Turns Into A Nightmare In New Teaser

Ahead of its premiere at Tribeca on June 10th, the teaser trailer has arrived for the film, written and directed by Peter Hengl. In the foreign-language film (with English subtitles), “Tired of feeling down about her weight, plus-sized 15-year-old Simi (Nina Katlein) heads to her aunt Claudia’s house for Easter weekend. Claudia (Pia Hierzegger), a popular nutritionist who’s written best-selling health books, so for Simi, spending a few days together could help change her diet and inspire weight loss.” “What should’ve been a nice holiday weekend with family quickly reveals anything but. Simi’s cousin, Filipp (Alexander Sladek), is curiously hostile towards her, while Filipp’s stepdad, Stefan (Michael Pink), is curiously the opposite towards Simi. At the same time, Claudia’s dietary guidance verges on becoming overly militant. What’s causing everyone to act so strangely and aggressively? The answers are even worse

Everyone loves a smile, but a big grin can become very unsettling in some situations. That’s the case with Paramount’s Smile, whose new teaser, which showed in theaters ahead of Top Gun and Crimes of the Future, will leave you with an uneasy feeling.
