This looks to me very much my jam. If there is one thing you can count on, Sundance and other film festivals to bring out, it’s some bizarre and fun-looking horror movies. Studios like A24, NEON usually pick up these types of films, and Focus Features in the case of You Won’t Be Alone. It’s also rather hit or miss if they will get any sort of audience or become a hit. They either make absolutely no impact, or they become cult classics. The early reviews for this one are looking pretty positive, so maybe we’ll get another cult horror classic on our hands.
