Sweetheart Kiersey Clemons JD Dillard

Universal Pictures Home Entertainment will be giving Blumhouse's survival thriller / creature feature SWEETHEART a Digital and VOD release on October 22nd, and a short trailer has arrived online to promote the release. 

Directed by J.D. Dillard from a screenplay he wrote with Alex Hyner and Alex Theurer, SWEETHEART stars Kiersey Clemons as 

Jenn, who finds herself completely alone on a small tropical island after her boat goes down. By day, every ounce of her strength, cunning, and courage is strained simply to find food, outlast the elements, and survive. But as the sun sets, Jenn's waking nightmare inexorably grows into terror, when a malevolent force comes to stalk the jungle for prey.

Clemons is joined in the cast by Emory Cohen, Hanna Mangan Lawrence, and Andrew Crawford.

The trailer for SWEETHEART is only 30 seconds long, but that's long enough to get across the fact that Jenn is going to have a rough time on that island. Check it out below and see if this is a movie you'd like to catch next month.

io9 described it as "a poignant mix of CASTAWAY and PREDATOR", so I'm sold.
