Muschietti’s Disturbing ‘Mama’ Short Introduced By Guillermo Del Toro

Those in the US will hopefully be terrified by Andres Muschietti’s upcoming horror effort, MAMA, for all the right reasons come its release on the 18th January (we here in the UK have to wait until the 22nd February). The film, which stars Jessica Chastain and Nikolaj Coster-Waldau, tells of Annabel and Lucas, a couple who are faced with the challenge of raising Lucas’ young nieces, who disappeared 5 years earlier along with their mother. Once the two young girls are found alive living in squalor in a cabin in the woods following the murder of her mother, the mystery of just how ‘alone’ they really were is soon to be answered…

Producer of the full-length feature, Guillermo del Toro, introduces Mushietti’s creepy short film which certainly shows why it caught his eye. Fingers crossed the film is better than Troy Nixey’s sleep-inducing DON’T BE AFRAID OF THE DARK, which del Toro also produced.
