Trailer for Alex Ross Perry’s Queen of Earth explores broken women

Last Updated on August 2, 2021

A month ahead of the film's theatrical release date of August 26th, IFC Films has provided a trailer for QUEEN OF EARTH, a psychological thriller from writer/director Alex Ross Perry.

Starring Elisabeth Moss and Katherine Waterston, QUEEN OF EARTH shows what happens when

two women retreat to a beach house to get a break from the pressures of the outside world, only to realize how disconnected from each other they have become, allowing their suspicions to bleed into reality.

Patrick Fugit, Kate Lyn Sheil, Kentucker Audley, and Keith Poulson co-star.

Thanks to this trailer, I will definitely be seeing QUEEN OF EARTH, and regardless of what I end up thinking of the full movie, I will at least be glad that it exists so this trailer could exist. This thing is two and a half minutes of bliss for me, with an off-kilter atmosphere, what looks to be a fantastic performance from Moss, and an incredible old school voiceover. 

Check out the trailer below and see if it impresses you as much as it impresses me.
