Halloween Horror Movie ‘Whistle’ Hits Shudder [Review]
Director Corin Hardy’s (The Nun, The Hallow) latest horror movie, the Halloween-set Whistle arrives on Shudder this week, bringing a fresh and original mythology, wildly inventive and insanely gory kills, and a stellar performance from Dafne Keen.
In the film, a misfit group of unwitting high school students stumble upon a cursed object, an ancient Aztec Death Whistle. Soon, they discover that blowing the whistle and the terrifying sound it emits will summon their future deaths to hunt them down. As the body count rises, the friends investigate the origins of the deadly artifact in a desperate effort to stop the horrifying chain of events that they have set in motion.
From The Nun director Corin Hardy, the cast includes Dafne Keen (Logan, The Acolyte), Sophie Nélisse (Yellowjackets), Sky Yang (Rebel Moon), Percy Hynes White (My Old Ass), Ali Skovbye (Grizzly Night), Michelle Fairley (Game of Thrones), and Nick Frost (Sean of the Dead, Get Away).
Owen Egerton, who wrote and directed the criminally underseen and absolutely excellent 2018 Halloween horror movie Blood Fest, adapted the screenplay for Whistle from his own short story.
Whistle begins streaming exclusively on Shudder on Friday, May 8.
