Nick Frost's latest horror-comedy, 'Get Away,' is coming to Shudder this January after premiering at Fantastic Fest last year. The film follows a family on a vacation to a small Swedish island who encounter unfriendly locals who warn them to leave. Based on Frost's real-life experiences, 'Get Away' promises a mix of laughs and scares.
Nick Frost is a well-known name in the horror-comedy genre, thanks to the cult classic Shaun of the Dead, which celebrated its 20th anniversary last year. Over the years, Frost has had an extensive career as an actor, writer, and comedian, and now he’s kick-starting the year with Get Away , another horror comedy about a family on a vacation from hell. After making its premiere at Fantastic Fest, last September, the movie is now making its streaming debut on Shudder this January, CBR reports.
The movie follows the Smith family, looking forward to spending a vacation on a small Swedish island. Things take a turn when they are unsettled by the unfriendly mainlanders, who advise them to avoid the island at all costs. If the previously released trailer and images are anything to go by, the feature is hilarious and scary at the same time. The feature, directed by Steffen Haars and written by Frost, also includes the talents of Aisling Bea, Sebastian Croft, and Maisie Ayres. It has a 73% rating on Rotten Tomatoes.

Speaking to Collider, Frost previously revealed that the inspiration for Get Away comes from his real-life experience. “So I've spent a lot of time on a really small island in Sweden — and let me just underscore what I'm gonna say by saying, I've always had a lovely time, and everyone's always made me feel very welcome — but even after 20 years of going to this island, there is still very much an “us and them” mentality, which is fine.” He further elaborated: 'I think that's how communities of small people keep the outsiders at bay, and I think that's pretty fine.
