Shudder has been doing some amazing things recently with their horror films. From Clown in a Cornfield to Dangerous Animals and beyond, the team behind everyone’s favorite horror movies is now bringing us a new film with two stars fans LOVE!
Dafne Keen and Sophie Nélisse are starring in Shudder’s new film Whistle and look, that’s kind of a perfect pairing. Keen, who became a fan favorite as a young girl in the film Logan as X-23, has always been able to capture the anger and the emotion of her characters. And that matched with Nélisse’s performance as Shauna in the hit series Yellowjackets makes this one iconic pairing.
The film is described as follows: “A misfit group of unwitting high school students stumble upon a cursed object, an ancient Aztec Death Whistle. They discover that blowing the whistle and the terrifying sound it emits will summon their future deaths to hunt them down. As the body count rises, the friends investigate the origins of the deadly artifact in a desperate effort to stop the horrifying chain of events that they have set in motion.”
Spooky, right?! It has been a while since we’ve had a school set in a high school like this. For the most part, our horror movies of the 80s and 90s were all rooted in high schoolers finding things they shouldn’t have. So to see us return to that genre of horror movie is kind of awesome. And with Keen and Nélisse leading the charge is going to be an amazing film! We do have to wait awhile though before the movie hits theaters.
Whistle is coming to theaters in 2026 and this trailer already has us hooked! So we cannot wait to see what Keen and Nélisse has in store for us.
