Trailer: The Invitation

Sony Pictures invites you to a nightmare generations in the making. Sony is being a bit cagey about the film’s vampire element, which is not mentioned in the official plot description: “After the death of her mother and having no other known relatives, Evie (Nathalie Emmanuel) takes a DNA test…and discovers a long-lost cousin she never knew she had. Invited by her newfound family to a lavish wedding in the English countryside, she’s at first seduced by the sexy aristocrat host but is soon thrust into a nightmare of survival as she uncovers twisted secrets in her family’s history and the unsettling intentions behind their sinful generosity.”

Jessica M. Thompson directed from a script by Blair Butler. The cast includes Nathalie Emmanuel, Thomas Doherty, Stephanie Corneliussen, Alana Boden, Courtney Taylor, Hugh Skinner, and Sean Pertwee. Release Date: August 26, 2022.
