Hot on the heels of Marianne, Netflix is continuing its quest to creep its subscribers out with new horror movie Eli.

The film follows the Millers, who, as a last resort to cure their son’s auto-immune disorder, move into a sterile manor during his treatments. When Eli is tormented by terrifying visions, it becomes clear that something sinister may lurk within the walls.

The film stars Stranger Things’ Sadie Sink, alongside Charlie Shotwell, Lili Taylor and Max Martini, and it is written by David Chirchirillo, Ian Goldberg and Richard Naing.

Directed by Sinister 2 helmer Ciaran Foy, the movie began life as Black List script in 2015, with Paramount planning to release it in January this year. Last December, though, Paramount sold the global rights to Netflix. Now, it’s set to drop on Netflix on 18th October. Here’s the super-creepy trailer:

 

Eli is available on Netflix UK, as part of an £9.99 monthly subscription.
