YOU’RE NEXT Animals Invade St. Louis

By Michelle McCue | August 3, 2013

The masks from Lionsgate’s YOU’RE NEXT are descending on cities around the country and have found their way to St. Louis.

There is no escaping the animal-masked, ax-wielding murderers in this devilishly smart and horrifying thriller that will keep you on the edge of your seat. The Davison family planned on the perfect reunion, but didn’t expect a violent intrusion… could you survive if there was nowhere to hide?

As you can see in these shots of ‪the Animals, no one – including Al MacInnis, Jack Buck, Ozzie Smith and Chuck Berry – is safe‬ in our fair city.

But beware – they are on the move and might be in your neighborhood already.

Lionsgate’s YOU’RE NEXT takes one of the most terrifying film genres, the home-invasion movie, and turns it on its head—adding dimension, drama, and bone-chilling realism to one of life’s most universal fears.

The story follows an upper-class family, the Davisons, who are as rich as they are estranged. In an earnest attempt to bring everyone back together, Aubrey and Paul Davison decide to celebrate their wedding anniversary by inviting their four children and their significant others to a family reunion at their remote and slightly rundown weekend estate.

At first it seems like decades-old sibling rivalries will derail any hope of reconciliation. But that quickly, and very abruptly, becomes the least of the Davisons’ concerns when their home comes under siege by a mask-wearing team of crossbow-bearing assailants. The family has no idea who’s attacking them, why they’re under attack, or if the attackers are inside or outside the cavernous, creaking house. All they know for certain is that nobody is safe.

A non-stop, edge-of-your-seat, home-invasion bloodbath, YOU’RE NEXT stars Sharni Vinson, Nicholas Tucci, Wendy Glenn, AJ Bowen, Joe Swanberg, Margaret Laney, Amy Seimetz, Ti West, and Rob Moran, along with scream queen Barbara Crampton (Re-Animator), who returns for to the big screen for the first time in seven years as matriarch Aubrey Davison. The film reunites the team behind serial-killer thriller A Horrible Way to Die, including director/editor Adam Wingard and writer/producer Simon Barrett.
