Acclaimed Shudder Original, folk horror NIGHTBORN – from Hanna Bergholm (Hatching) and starring Finnish award-winning star Seidi Haarla in a powerful lead performance, alongside British screen favourite Rupert Grint – sees a happily married couple move to a remote forest home, so they can be close to nature when their first child is born, but this darkly brooding tale turns into a terrifying parental nightmare.
Deep in the dark, eerie, isolated forests of Finland, a couple’s dream of starting a family descends into a waking nightmare when Saga (Haarla – Compartment Number 6) and her British husband Jon (Grint – Harry Potter, Servant) move into her decaying childhood home, seeking a peaceful fresh start.
Following a gruelling birth, their newborn son, Kuura, begins transforming at an impossible, terrifying rate – sprouting hair and developing a disturbing craving for blood. As Saga’s sanity is pushed to its very limits, the couple’s relationship disintegrates.
As they try and tackle their problems, madness descends, the forest darkens and takes hold, and a monstrous presence starts to engulf them. Is it the mother, the baby or something far too sinister to comprehend
Prepare for darkness as NIGHTBORN exposes the darkest fears of motherhood, and nature versus nurture, in a gorefilled folklore terror fest.
