Hunter Schafer from Euphoria stars in the upcoming psychological horror film Cuckoo, which centres on an adolescent who moves to the German Alps against his will.

Neon, who is well-known for producing and releasing films including Parasite, Titane, Infinity Pool, and Possessor, has added a new film to their roster for 2024. Consequently, they have come to be associated with extremely unsettling films. It appears that Cuckoo, Tilman Singer’s second feature after Luz, about a young cab driver haunted by a demonic spirit, is no exception.

Cuckoo Release Date

The film Cuckoo is now showing only in US theatres. August 23 is when it lands in the UK.

Cuckoo Plot

Gretchen, a 17-year-old who is reluctant to leave her US home, moves to live with her father in Cuckoo. Her father recently moved to the German Alps. Not only is the relocation an additional stressor, but she also needs to adjust to her new family, which includes her silent half-sister Alma.

But something doesn’t seem quite right, even if the area appears to be a serene paradise. Mr. König, the supervisor of Gretchen’s father, has an odd fascination with Alma. Worse worse, Gretchen continues to experience unsettling visions and unusual noises until she discovers a family secret.

Cuckoo Cast

Lead actor Hunter Schafer from Euphoria plays Gretchen, while Dan Stevens from The Guest plays Mr. König and Mila Lieu plays Alma.

Marton Csokas as Luis, Jessica Henwick as Beth, Astrid Bergès-Frisbey as Ed, and Greta Fernández as Trixie are among the other cast members.

Cuckoo Trailer

“Mom, I really want to come home” plays on a cassette at the beginning of the video. From there, it moves from quite nice location shots to something spooky.
