A lonely woman (Marianne Jean-Baptiste), recently separated from her husband, visits a bewitching London department store in search of a dress that will transform her life. She’s fitted with a perfectly flattering, artery-red gown — which, in time, will come to unleash a malevolent curse and unstoppable evil, threatening everyone who comes into its path.
From acclaimed horror director Peter Strickland (the singular auteur behind the sumptuous sadomasochistic romance “The Duke of Burgundy” and auditory Giallo-homage “Berberian Sound Studio”) comes a truly nightmarish film, at turns frightening, seductive, and darkly humorous. Channeling voyeuristic fantasies of high fashion and bloodshed, “In Fabric” is Strickland’s most twisted and brilliantly original vision yet.
Starring Marianne Jean-Baptiste, Gwendoline Christie, Jaygann Ayeh, Fatma Mohamed, Hayley Squires, and Leo Bill.
Written and Directed by Peter Strickland.
In Theaters December 6th and On-Demand December 10th
