“Strange Darling” is quickly becoming a modern cult classic as more and more people discover the audacious horror film. And now that you can stream the movie from home, its audience is only growing.
Out now, “Strange Darling” in 4K Ultra HD is available to buy digitally for $19.99 online on Prime Video, Apple TV and other video-on-demand platforms.
Meanwhile, “Strange Darling” is set for release on DVD and Blu-ray with prices starting at $21.09 on Tuesday, Nov. 5 on Amazon and Walmart.
The plot unfolds during the one-night stand of two characters known as only The Lady (Willa Fitzgerald) and The Demon (Kyle Gallner). The character names on title cards at the beginning of the film are one of the first instances of playing on expectations, as well as an early scroll revealing that this is a story about a serial killer. As the pair debate whether or not to head from his truck into a cheap hotel room for some late-night fun, the camera passes over the hidden barrel of a literal Chekhov’s gun. Once they head inside and get undressed, they engage in some very rough foreplay, and your breath catches, waiting for the other shoe to drop.
In his review, film critic Michael Nordine called “Strange Darling,” the “cleverest thriller of its kind in a while.”
“Best experienced with as little foreknowledge as possible, he continues, “‘Strange Darling’ demands a bit of patience, but it also rewards it.”
The movie also stars Barbara Hershey, Ed Begley Jr., Madisen Beaty, Bianca A. Santos, Steven Michael Quezada, Denise Grayson, Eugenia Kuzmina and others.
