With Janet Leigh’s daughter Jamie Lee Curtis recreating her iconic shower scene from Alfred Hitchock’s Psycho, Anthony Perkins’ son and writer/director Osgood “Oz” Perkins recently debuted his first feature film Febuary at the Toronto International Film Festival. So far the film has received some great reviews and next month it’s screening at Beyond Fest.
There’s also a clip from the film online, but from what I’ve heard it’s best to go into this movie knowing as little as possible. After watching this trailer I think I’ll just try to patiently wait for this film, and hope it gets a wide release soon.
Here’s the synopsis for the film:
Kat (Kiernan Shipka, Mad Men) and Rose (Lucy Boynton) are in different grades at a prestigious prep school for girls, where they are stranded after their parents mysteriously fail to retrieve them for winter break. Meanwhile, a haunted young woman, Joan (Emma Roberts), makes a bloody pilgrimage across a frozen landscape toward the school. As Joan gets closer, Kat is plagued by increasingly terrifying visions, and Rose can only look on in horror as her younger schoolmate becomes possessed by an unseen evil force.
So far no release date has been set.
