Graphic moments shown in the trailer

The sequence opens with a mother unloading a dishwasher packed with sharp cutlery. A knock at the door interrupts her chore, and she finds an undead woman with chopped-off fingers.

The corpse removes a car headrest lodged in her skull and drops it on the floor. Flashbacks cut to a violent car crash and a door slamming on a girl’s fingers, severing them.

Later, the walking corpse forces a boy face-first onto the dishwasher. She impales him with silverware and presses down, driving the cutlery deeper into his chest.

Sébastien Vaniček directed and co-wrote the new film. He co-wrote the screenplay with Florent Bernard.

Series creator Sam Raimi chose Vaniček after seeing his 2024 debut feature, Infested. Raimi produces with Rob Tapert under Ghost House Pictures.
