Aura Entertainment has announced the official release of Colin Minihan’s latest feature Coyotes. Trapped in their Hollywood Hills home, a family (Long, Bosworth, Harris) must fight for survival as a pack of savage coyotes closes in. Aura will bring the star-studded indie horror comedy to Fantastic Fest on September 20, followed by a US theatrical release on October 3.
The cast is led by Justin Long (Barbarian) and Kate Bosworth (Superman Returns). The real life couple and creative partners are joined in the horror comedy by Katherine McNamara (Shadowhunters), Brittany Allen (What Keeps You Alive), Mila Harris (Mary), and Norbert Leo Butz (A Complete Unknown).
Watch the film’s official trailer in the player below:
After a Santa Ana windstorm knocks out power in the Hollywood Hills and crushes the family SUV, the Stewarts — Scott, Liv, and their precocious daughter, Chloe — are stranded in their hillside home with no cell service, no escape route, and just enough Spam to start a riot.
But the real problem? Coyotes. Not the scrappy, skittish kind that dig through your garbage and steal your cat — but smart, organized, murder-flavored coyotes. Led by a scar-faced alpha with serious beef, the coyote pack starts picking off neighbors like it’s happy hour at an all-you-can-eat casino buffet. As wildfires rage on one side and a bloodthirsty canine death cult circles the other, the Stewarts — armed with nothing but a flashlight, an old iPad, and some questionable decision-making.
Coyotes will world premiere at Austin’s Fantastic Fest on September 20. Coyotes will officially open theatrically Friday, October 3 in theaters across the US.
