Neon has finally shared a new clip from its highly-anticipated horror thriller, which hails from Longlegs director Oz Perkins.
The film is scheduled to arrive in theaters on February 21, 2025. “When twin brothers Hal and Bill discover their father’s old monkey toy in the attic, a series of gruesome deaths starts occurring all around them,” reads the official synopsis. “The brothers decide to throw the monkey away and move on with their lives, growing apart over the years.
But when the mysterious deaths begin again, the brothers must reunite to find a way to destroy the monkey for good before it takes the lives of everyone close to them.” Check out The Monkey clip below (watch more trailers): The gift that keeps on killing.
