What is When Evil Lurks about?

“A pair of brothers find a mutilated corpse near their property and convene with the locals to suss it out,” the synopsis reads, per Bloody Disgusting. “They soon learn that the odd happenings in their village are the cause of a spirit that’s found its way into a local man waiting for the proper protocols to rid his body of the festering demon. An escape attempt ensues as the film keeps its protagonists on edge, racing against imminent danger to shake the spirit’s relentless clutches.”

Along with 2017’s Terrified (which is getting both a sequel written by Rugna and a remake produced by Guillermo del Toro for Searchlight Pictures), Rugna directed 2007’s The Last Gateway, 2016’s You Don’t Know Who You’re Talking To, and 2022’s Satanic Hispanics.

Rugna told Deadline in regards to When Evil Lurks, “Working with Shudder has been an incredible and seamless experience. They allowed me the creative space to direct freely with the same goal in mind – identify new ways to shock and scare audiences with an innovative approach and a fresh story.”

Having premiered at the Toronto International Film Festival’s Midnight Madness, When Evil Lurks releases in theaters on October 6 before it hits Shudder just in time for Halloween on October 27.
