“I feel like we are being watched…” Sky Cinema has posted their official UK trailer for the upcoming release of a horror comedy film titled Get Away from director Steffen Haars. It premiered at Fantastic Fest and Sitges and will also open in the US in December as well as in the UK from January. A family’s vacation to a remote getaway takes an unexpected turn when they discover the island they’re on is inhabited by a serial killer. But who exactly is it? The Smith family arrives on a tiny Swedish island called Svälta where they get into all kinds of trouble. Fantastic Fest adds: “Fueled with dark humor, mean jokes, and outrageous scenes, Get Away will mislead you all the way to an unexpected, twisted ending. So come on board and enjoy the trip to Svälta!” Starring Nick Frost, Aisling Bea, Sebastian Croft, Maisie Ayres, and Eero Milonoff. These trailers play like an even kookier version of Midsommar featuring a wacky British family. But it’s even crazier than that! Alas I’m not a big fan of this film at all, I didn’t care for it much the comedy didn’t work for me. But if the humor and horror looks good to you – don’t miss this whenever it opens in your area soon.
Here’s the official UK trailer for Steffen Haars’ horror film Get Away, direct from Sky’s YouTube:

Looking forward to a vacation on the small Swedish island of Svälta, the Smith family is unsettled by the unfriendly mainlanders who advise them to avoid the island at all costs, especially during the Karantan festival. But the 4-member family is in deep need of some time away & stubbornly decides to take the ferry anyway. On the island, the locals are rather rude & unwelcoming, and their behavior suggests that some big event is about to happen. Is it a cult? Is there a sacrifice in the works? Seemingly unbothered by so much discourtesy and drama, the family enjoys a swim in the sea, treks in the woods, and, oh, the silent isolation… which turns out to be a pretty perfect situation for the Smiths, who have special plans of their own. Get Away is directed by Dutch comedy filmmaker Steffen Haars, of the films New Kids Turbo New Kids Nitro, and tons of other wacky projects previously; he’s also one half of the duo behind Krazy House. The screenplay is written by Nick Frost. Produced by Lee Kim, John Hegeman, Nick Frost, Aram Tertzakian, Nick Spicer, Maxime Cottray. This just premiered at Fantastic Fest 2024 and plays the Sitges Film Festival next. IFC Films debuts Get Away in select US theaters starting December 6th, 2024 this fall. Look good?
