Writer/director Johannes Nyholm's Swedish horror film KOKO-DI KOKO-DA is set to receive a theatrical release courtesy of Dark Star Pictures in New York on March 27th, with a release to follow in Los Angeles on April 17th. In anticipation of this release, Dark Star has put a trailer for the film online, and it looks like this is going to be one bizarre ride. The Hollywood Reporter referred to it as the "bastard offspring of GROUNDHOG DAY and THE BABADOOK", which gives a good idea of how weird this appears to be. The trailer can be seen above.
The story Nyholm crafted for his film goes like this:
Elin and Tobias are a happily married couple who regularly vacation with their young daughter. The family is on a dreamy holiday when an innocuous case of food poisoning derails their plans and forever alters the course of their lives. Three years later, the once loving couple is on the road again to go camping, looking for one last chance to go back to the way things used to be. But what once was is lost, and our characters instead find themselves having to relive the same nightmarish events, as that day and the horrors it brings repeat themselves infinitely. Together, they must overcome their trauma, reconcile with their past and fight for their lives. Over, and over, and over again.
Leif Edlund, Peter Belli, Ylva Gallon, Katarina Jakobson, Morad Baloo Khatchadorian, and Brandy Litmanen star.
