- Trailers for upcoming horror movies have been released. the monkey and Until dawn
- The trailers were released on February 21 and April 25, respectively.
- People are especially divided into Until dawnthe premise
We were spoiled last year when it came to horror and I hope 2025 gets off to a good start now that we have trailers for two exciting new films. Every time I reflect on TechRadar contributor Gem Seddon’s best horror movies of 2024, I wonder how we’re going to top that. Taking into account that we had great successes such as The substance and, my personal favorite, I saw the television shine I feel like it’s going to take a lot to overcome that this year. I’ve already put together my most anticipated horror movies of 2025 and it looks like I’ll be adding the monkey and Until dawn to the list.
Oz Perkins scared everyone with his horror crime hit long legs last year and hopefully the monkey It will do just as well. Meanwhile, the PlayStation horror game sensation Until dawn is getting the big screen treatment with a major twist.
Here’s what you need to know.
the monkey
Look
long legs was everywhere last year, and even if you weren’t brave enough to watch Nicolas Cage as the titular serial killer, you’ll no doubt have heard a lot about him. Director Oz Perkins decides not to rest on his laurels and returns with another proposal in the form of the monkey. It already caught my attention since Saw and the spell Director James Wan also participates as a producer.
the monkey has a brilliant cast including Elijah Wood and Tatiana Maslany, with Theo James in a dual role as twin brothers who find their father’s antique toy monkey in the attic which, unfortunately for them, is cursed. We’ve had plenty of creepy dolls like Chucky, Annabelle, and M3GAN on the big screen, so I’m excited to see if this scary-looking monkey can reach similar heights. We don’t have to wait long either since the film arrives on February 21.
Until dawn
Look
This is definitely going to divide people. Until dawn is one of the best horror games out there, so it’s only natural that people would be apprehensive about the film adaptation. It was recently confirmed that Until dawn It would follow a different story than the game and I personally think it’s a smart decision. Setting the movie in-universe but surprising us with a different narrative than the game means it’s new and exciting, although others aren’t convinced!
In what is shaping up to be the most talked about horror adaptation right now, this one hits theaters on April 25, so there’s a bit of a wait. But if you want some scares this spring, it might be worth giving Until dawn an opportunity.
