A24 has released an intriguing teaser poster for It Comes at Night. Written and directed by Trey Edward Shults (Krisha), the horror film opens on August 25.

Joel Edgerton (The Gift), Riley Keough (Mad Max: Fury Road), Christopher Abbott (Martha Marcy May Marlene), Carmen Ejogo (The Purge: Anarchy), and Kelvin Harrison Jr. (The Birth of a Nation) star.

The synopsis below builds mystery without giving any specific details on the plot, which is fine by me; I’m sold on this one already.

It Comes At Night follows a man (Joel
Edgerton) as he is learns that the evil stalking his family home may be
only a prelude to horrors that come from within.

Secure within a desolate home as an unnatural threat terrorizes the
world, the tenuous domestic order he has established with his wife and
son is put to the ultimate test with the arrival of a desperate young
family seeking refuge.

Despite the best intentions of both families, paranoia and mistrust
boil over as the horrors outside creep ever-closer, awakening something
hidden and monstrous within him as he learns that the protection of his
family comes at the cost of his soul.
