The Home, a new horror thriller from Roadside Attractions and Lionsgate, has just received its first trailer. The film, which stars Saturday Night Live star Pete Davidson, follows Max (Davidson) as he is forced to work at a retirement home as an act of community service. After venturing to the forbidden fourth floor, he begins to uncover secrets about the facility, which puts himself and the residents in danger. The film is directed by James DeMonaco (The Purge) and is co-written by DeMonaco and Adam Kantor.
In the trailer, we see Max notice unusual behavior from some of the residents, piquing his curiosity. One of the residents says, “There’s something very wrong with this place, something terribly wrong.” As he begins to see even more frightening behavior from residents, including one person jumping from a window and being impaled by a fence, Max digs deep to find out what is really going on behind the scene at the retirement home.
In a statement about the film, director James DeMonaco said, “When I set out to create The Home, I aimed to capture the spine-chilling eeriness of 70’s horror, where suspense simmers and ultimately erupts into glorious chaos. Joining me is my Staten Island brother, Pete Davidson, who unveils a darker, dramatic side as his character navigates a bizarre group of residents in an old-age home. The growing tension culminates in an epic, blood-soaked finale, designed to leave audiences gasping, terrified, and cheering. I can’t wait for everyone to visit The Home. Cover your eyes, folks.”
Pete Davidson is mostly known for comedic performances, especially due to his characters on Saturday Night Live. With The Home, audiences will get to see what he can do in one of his first truly dramatic and serious performances. The Home will release in theaters on July 25.
