The Thrilling Digital Release of 'Until Dawn'
Sony Pictures Entertainment has just kicked off the digital premiere of
'Until Dawn', a film that adapts the chilling atmosphere of the acclaimed PlayStation game 'Until Dawn -惨劇の山荘-'. Scheduled for streaming from September 17, 2025, this movie promises an original story with new characters, turning the essence of interactive horror gameplay into a captivating cinematic experience.
Set in a secluded mountain lodge, the plot follows a group of friends led by Clover, who venture to the mountains to search for her sister Melanie, missing for a year. However, their trip takes a dark turn when they are confronted by a masked killer. The horrific twist? After each brutal death, they find themselves inexplicably returned to the time just before their demise, trapped in a gruesome cycle of death and resurrection.
This film offers a unique twist on the slasher genre, incorporating elements of a time-loop horror that keeps audiences on the edge of their seats. With shocking visuals that have been labeled as “too scary” and “intensely gripping,” it has quickly climbed to the top ten of the U.S. box office charts after its initial release in April, staying there for four consecutive weeks.
