Shudder has released a second clip from the upcoming psychosexual horror thriller Jakob’s Wife. The film, which streams from August 19, brings a contemporary, insightful and often very funny reinterpretation of the classic vampire movie theme
Anne is in her late 50s and feels like her life and marriage have been shrinking over the past thirty years. Through a chance encounter with a stranger, she discovers a new sense of power and an appetite to live bigger and bolder than before. However, these changes come with a toll on her marriage and a heavy body count.
Watch the latest clip in the player below:
Featuring a joyous central performance from horror icon Barbara Crampton (You’re Next), who skilfully weaves in her own remarkable off-screen journey through horror history, alongside genre legend Larry Fessenden (The Dead Don’t Die), Bonnie Aarons (The Nun), Nyisha Bell, Mark Kelly, Sarah Lind, Robert Rusler, and Phil Brooks (aka CM Punk), JAKOB’S WIFE is a full-bloodied rallying cry to grab life (and death) by the throat and reclaim your place in the world in all its gory glory.
In case you missed it, here’s the trailer for the film:
