From Beginning to End Brandon Christensen's Z is All Horror

Tagline: "Z Wants to Play."

Z is the name of an imaginary? monster. Z is also the title to Shudder's latest horror acquisition. From director Brandon Christensen (Still/Born) and writer Colin Minihan, this feature focuses on a young boy and the terror he materializes into reality. Shudder will release this intriguing film in May, Mother's Day weekend. As well, the film stars: Keegan Connor Tracy ("Bates Motel"), Sean Rogerson (Grave Encounters), Jett Klyne and Stephen McHattie. Shot in Canada, the film's available release details are hosted here.

The film's trailer shows Joshua (Klyne) and the creature that stalks him. First, it appears as a drawing. Then, it takes a human-like form as it terrorizes an entire family. But, how is this monster coming into existence?

Director Christensen has talked about his latest film. Christensen says of the characters: "with Z, we once again have a film about a tortured mother and father, diving into the psyche of what it’s like to have a child with a mind of their own." How terrifying can a child be? With films like The Omen (1975), The Children (2008) and many others, they can definitely bring the horror.

Shudder has set May 7th as the film's release date. On this date, Z will show in the following territories: the U.S., Canada, the UK and Ireland. Having its World Premiere at the Overlook Film Festival, Z looks to terrify more audiences this May.

Release Date: May 7th, 2020 (Shudder: UK, Canada, Ireland).
