Holly Jones Ahead of its ambitious release scheme, Shudder has granted Variety exclusive access to the lurid teaser trailer for Argentine genre-phenom Demián Rugna’s fifth feature “When Evil Lurks” (“Cuando Acecha La Maldad”). With Paris-based prestige sales agent Charades (“Little Girl Blue”) handling global sales, the film debuts at the Toronto Film Festival’s Midnight Madness screenings on Sept. 13.
Shudder, AMC Networks’ premium streaming service for horror, is partnering with IFC Films (“Boyhood,” “Blackberry”) for the highly-anticipated theatrical release on Oct. 6 and the film will hit the streamer as a Shudder Original on Oct. 27, just in time to curdle blood on Halloween.
“We’re very excited to continue our collaboration with Shudder/IFC Films and were blown away seeing this film from Argentina. We can’t wait to see the reaction of the audience in Toronto,” Charades’ co-founders Pierre Mazara, Carole Baraton and Yohann Comte said in a statement. Following the success of “Terrified” (“Aterrados”), which garnered buzz after being named Fantastic Fest’s best horror feature in 2017 and whose remake rights were granted to Guillermo del Toro, Rugna’s fifth title carries the trademark gore and suspense now paired with the protagonist’s self-inflicted psychological warfare.
Rugna, adding another chilling movie to his repertoire, boosts a genre that audiences flock to despite very lucid and turbulent present-day realities. “I think horror movies can put the viewer in a situation that they don’t experience in real life, in the flesh. Horror movies play with the sensation of the unknown, the fear of death,” Rugna mused.

Catherine Bray In cinematic terms, regime change lends itself to a full stop or climax. It’s often used by filmmakers as a conclusion. Revolution is typically portrayed as the final act that the struggle has been building toward, as the old ways are swept aside in favor of a new and presumably glorious future.

The allegorical film, beautifully shot in black-and-white by ace cinematographer Ed Lachman, stars revered 87-year-old Chilean actor Jaime Vadell in the role of Pinochet, who in reality died at the age of 91 in 2006, unpunished and rich.
