If you thought the American psychological thriller Gone Girl
(2014) was the craziest film you ever saw, you’re in for a bigger shock. Gilles Paquet-Brenner’s Dark Places, based on a novel by Gillian Flynn (also the author of the Gone Girl novel) has every intention of scaring the living daylights out of you. Check out the film’s trailer now!

After her latest blockbuster Mad Max: Fury Road, Charlize Theron is playing the lead in this one as Libby Day, the only surviving member of her family who escaped getting butchered by her own brother. Set in a farming town in Kansas, the film will make you morbidly curious about the horrific murders which shouldn’t be taken at face value.

Dark Place also stars Nicholas Hoult and will hit American theatres in August 2015. If this is your kinda thrill, keep the popcorn ready!
