Brutal New Clip Arrives Ahead Of The Premiere Of 'The Last Thing Mary Saw' On Shudder

A Family Stands Vigil In The New Clip From Shudder ‘s ‘The Last Thing Mary Saw’

Shudder unveiled today a new clip, titled “Finger,” from their dark original film The Last Thing Mary Saw. In it, we see a family standing vigil over an old woman, with their gaze locked on her hands, watching for the slightest sign of life. This period horror-thriller stars Rory Culkin (Waco, Halston), Stefanie Scott (Insidious: Chapter 3), and Isabelle Fuhrman (Orphan). The Last Thing Mary Saw was written and directed by Edoardo Vitaletti, who is making his feature debut.
