A trailer for The Boogeyman has been released, revealing a new look at the upcoming Stephen King adaptation and the revival of a childhood nightmare.
A new trailer for The Boogeyman has been released, providing a new look at the nightmare-filled Stephen King adaptation. Based on King's 1973 short story of the same name, the upcoming film is directed by Rob Savage and tells the story of two siblings dealing with a terrifying entity that feeds on their collective suffering. The film stars Vivien Lyra Blair as Sawyer, Sophie Thatcher as Sadie, and Chris Messina as Will.
SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Now, ahead of the film's June release, 20th Century Studios has released a new trailer for The Boogeyman, showing off the revival of King's nightmarish story. The trailer, featured above, doesn't provide a clear look at the titular creature but does include a number of scares, in addition to hinting at the trauma at the center of the story.
What The Boogeyman Trailer Reveals About The Movie It remains to be seen what the general audience response to The Boogeyman will be, but the film follows the release of Children of the Corn, Firestarter, and Mr. Harrigan's Phone, three other King adaptations that weren't received very positively. The trailer for The Boogeyman, however, suggests that this latest adaptation could break this trend.
While The Boogeyman trailer makes clear that Sawyer and Sadie's emotional arcs will be a large part of the story, it also affirms that the adaptation won't be skimping out on the scares. There are several standout jumpscare moments from the trailer, including the creature breaking down Sadie's door and then later pulling Will and Sawyer back into the house by the front door.
