In August, there will be a sci-fi horror film called Afraid that will hit theaters. The movie is produced by Blumhouse and distributed by Sony Pictures. The trailer for Afraid has been released by Blumhouse, which features the horrors of AI or artificial intelligence terror.
This movie is worth looking forward to because the story is very relevant to the present, where human needs are very dependent on artificial intelligence in all aspects.
The movie Afraid features Katherine Waterston and John Cho as a couple who have two children and they install an artificial intelligence system in their home.
Besides Katherine Waterston and John Cho, Riki Lindhome, Havana Rose Liu, and David Dastmalchian will also appear in the movie. Blumhouse, the production studio of this movie, has previously succeeded with the movie M3gan which combines the horror genre and artificial intelligence.
AI Technology Terror in Afraid Trailer
The movie revolves around a family that has a virtual assistant in their home. However, they don’t realize that this virtual assistant can cause disaster for anyone it perceives as a threat.
The family hoped that this system would help them better organize their daily lives. Unfortunately, the result was quite the opposite. The digital technology began to disrupt the family and caused their lives to fall apart.
The movie trailer begins in a house located in a peaceful suburb, where a small family is introduced to the latest artificial intelligence technology called Aia.
At first, the family was happy with Aia’s presence, but things changed when Aia started to take control too much.
Directed by Chris Weitz
After contributing to the movie The Twilight Saga: New Moon, Chris Weitz is now involved in the movie Afraid as a writer and director. Thanks to his success in the Twilight series, Chris has also had the opportunity to take part in major projects such as The Mountain Between Us and Pinocchio.
On the other hand, Jason Blum has been successful in growing his business by finding new ideas and turning them into a successful franchise.
Currently, Blumhouse is preparing to release sequels to the movies Black Phone, M3gan, and Five Nights at Freddy’s.
Blumhouse hopes to achieve even greater success with the release of Afraid in theaters this year. They aim to become a leading company in the commercial horror genre with the ambitious projects they are working on.
