Not sure why Jamie Thraves’ new suspense thriller THE CRY OF THE OWL has found minimal play here at AITH. Is it because it’s hardly your typical horror fare? Maybe. Because it’s a remake of Claude Chabrol’s 1987 flick of the same name? Perhaps. Is it because it stars Julia Stiles? Let’s get to the bottom of this!

The last update we had regarding Thraves’ new outing came back in mid-March, when we saw an official trailer and caught wind of theatrical and DVD release dates. Well folks, cut to a good ten weeks or so later…where we now have four, count em…FOUR new clips from the film to get you interested prior to its DVD release on June 8th. Peep them bastards out below!

Based on the novel by Patricia Highsmith (The Talented Mr. Ripley), a young woman becomes inexplicably attracted to a man who is stalking her. When her boyfriend goes missing, the stalker is the immediate suspect, until a game of jealousy and betrayal turns deadly.

Paddy Considine plays the lead opposite Stiles (below), with supporting work put in by Karl Pruner, Phillip MacKenzie, Gord Rand, James Gilbert, Caroline Dhavernas, R.D. Reid, Alex Karzis, Marcia Laskowski, Krista Bridges and Charlotte Sullivan.
