However, upon arriving, they soon discover that their idyllic holiday with eternal sunlight is a lot more sinister than they had realised, especially when the locals invite the travellers to take part in their increasingly horrifying traditions…

IN ONE SENTENCE, WHY SHOULD YOU BE EXCITED?

Ari Aster follows up his horror hit Hereditary with a disturbing tale of Pagan cults and eternal sunshine, featuring Florence Pugh in a prominent starring role.
