Shudder has acquired Hanna Bergholm‘s (Hatching) Nightborn.

In Nightborn, “With dreams of starting a perfect family, Saga and her British husband Jon move to the isolated house where she spent much of her childhood, deep in the Finnish forest. But as soon as their baby is born, despite the reassurance of all around her, Saga knows there’s something terribly wrong with her son. As their marriage starts to crack, Jon struggles to support his wife, but only Saga suspects the terrible truth about her newborn.”

Seidi Haarla (Compartment No. 6) and Rupert Grint (Knock at the Cabin, “Servant”) star in the film.

The cast also includes Pamela Tola, Pirkko Saisio, Rebecca Lacey and John Thomson.

Nightborn will make its premiere at Fantasia on  July 22 before debuting on Shudder on July 31.
