‘Grafted’ Trailer Previews New Shudder Beauty Body Horror Movie
Hot on the heels of this year’s Oscar-worthy stunner The Substance comes another new body horror movie centered on an obsession with beauty, streaming on Shudder in early 2025, and the official trailer for Grafted definitely brings the gory goods.
Here’s the official synopsis: Chinese scholarship student Wei travels to New Zealand to study medical research at a prestigious university. Shy, introverted, and hiding a genetic facial birthmark, Wei is shunned by her social butterfly cousin Angela and her glamorous friends. Determined to change her fate, Wei immerses herself in her late father’s research, working on a revolutionary skin grafting procedure that could cure her deformity. As her experiments take a dark turn, she becomes more dangerous and unhinged, willing to eliminate anyone who threatens her secret.
The film is directed by Sasha Rainbow, starring Joyena Sun, Jess Hong, Eden Hart, Jared Turner, Sepi To’a, and Xiao Hu. The screenplay was written by Sasha Rainbow, Mia Maramara, Hweiling Ow, and Lee Murray.
Grafted premieres on Shudder on January 24.
