'When Evil Lurks' has an incredible script and one we are excited to be partners on from this early stage as a Shudder Original Production."
"When Evil Lurks" is the fifth feature from the Argentinian director who had previously directed the 2018 Austin Fantastic Fest winning "Terrified." It also won the Runner Up Prize at the Sitges Pitchbox. Shudder revealed that it expects to begin production on "When Evil Lurks" in March, with a release targeted for November 2022. We're excited to see the latest addition to Shudder's unique library of horror, thriller, and supernatural content.
