Dave Franco, Alison Brie Body Horror ‘Together’ Lands at Neon
Together, the body horror movie starring real-life couple Alison Brie and Dave Franco, has landed at Neon, which has had success as of late with horror films like Longlegs.
Michael Shanks wrote and directed the movie about a long-term couple who, while their relationship is in a weak moment, decides to move to the countryside, which triggers a supernatural incident. The movie was greeted at the Sundance Film Festival with a raucous premiere screening filled with applause, laughs and screams of discomfort.
The Hollywood Reporter review of the movie reads, “Shanks never lets the relationship drama intrude too much on the demented ‘pleasures’ of the stretchy flesh, mining humor throughout from such things as social media banality, gay weddings, the uses of muscle relaxants against occult forces and, of course, that electric saw. It’s refreshing to see a horror movie that relies less on shock tactics than good old-fashioned dread and revulsion.”
In addition to starring, Brie and Franco produced the film. Picturestart, Tango, 1.21 and Princess Pictures also produced.
