The title aptly describes the movie and some of the people in it.
Written and directed by Tilman Singer (LUZ), CUCKOO opens in theaters nationwide August 9 from Neon. It stars Hunter Schafer, Dan Stevens, Marton Csokas, Jessica Henwick, Jan Bluthardt, Greta Fernandez and Mila Lieu; the synopsis: “Reluctantly, 17-year-old Gretchen [Schafer] leaves her American home to live with her father [Csokas], who has just moved into a resort in the German Alps with his new family. Arriving at their future residence, they are greeted by Mr. König [Stevens], her father’s boss, who takes an inexplicable interest in Gretchen’s mute half-sister Alma [Lieu]. Something doesn’t seem right in this tranquil vacation paradise. Gretchen is plagued by strange noises and bloody visions until she discovers a shocking secret that also concerns her own family.”
Singer and Stevens talk about CUCKOO in RUE MORGUE #219, now on sale.
