If you can’t get enough of a horror movie rush, then watch this trailer. It will take you out of your skin and give you a massive rush with your heart flip-flopping to the fright the trailer provides at the end of the trailer.
Directed by Nicolas McCarthy, The Prodigy is a horror thriller transcending beyond Michael Myer in creepiness and Regan in disfigurement.
The story follows a mother named Sarah, played by Taylor Schilling, whose young son Miles, played by Jackson Robert Scott, is behaving in a more than disturbing characteristic. It signals that an evil, possibly supernatural force has overtaken him.
For her family’s safety, Sarah must choose between her maternal instinct to love and protect Miles and a desperate need to investigate what – or who – is causing his dark turn.
She is forced to look for answers in the past, taking the audience on a wild ride where the line between perception and reality becomes frighteningly blurry.
McCarthy’s directing credits include other horror movies and shorts. The screenplay is by Jeff Buhler, who seems very busy writing horror movies. The soon-to-be-released Pet Sematary is his last script, with others on the way.
The movie trailer will rock your horror socks off. Indeed, it is scary.
Creepy is the first thought I have about this second trailer. Mother’s worth fear becomes a reality. The second poster shows how the mother’s relationship with her son is the key to the horror story.
The “He’s Here” movie clip is scary. I jumped out of my skin.
The movie clip and featurette set the pace for what to expect in the movie theaters. This is a mother’s worst nightmare. Scott, as the boy, is unbelievable as the “innocent” and creepy son of a single mother.
The featurette introduces you to the director, music composer, and other behind-the-scenes crew. The horror movie will shock you out of your head.
The cast and crew praise Scott, who plays Miles, and watching these clips, you see an evil kid. But, watch the featurette about Scott, and you see a normal kid who knows how to be evil.
The movie is available online or Blu-ray/DVD package. No matter how you view this movie, it is fantastic and horribly intense.
Scott, as the young man possessed by some demon, is brutal. I am on the seat of my chair, anticipating something evil to happen.
Sarah goes through so many emotions about her son’s plight. Don’t watch the movie alone.
