Them That Follow Walton Goggins Britt Poulton Daniel Savage

The writing/directing duo of Britt Poulton and Daniel Savage assembled a really impressive cast for their thriller THEM THAT FOLLOW, which is set to be released on August 2nd. 

The film stars the great Walton Goggins; Olivia Colman, who just won an Oscar for her role in THE FAVOURITE a few months ago; Kaitlyn Dever, who has been getting a lot of critical praise for BOOKSMART; Lewis Pullman of THE STRANGERS: PREY AT NIGHT; Top of the Lake's Alice Englert; Thomas Mann, who you may have seen in KONG: SKULL ISLAND; and comedian Jim Gaffigan… although it doesn't look like there's going to be anything funny about this movie.

The story of THEM THAT FOLLOW is set deep in Appalachia, where 

Pastor Lemuel Childs (Goggins) presides over an isolated community of serpent handlers, an obscure sect of Pentecostals who willingly take up venomous snakes to prove themselves before God. As his devoted daughter, Mara (Englert) prepares for her wedding day, under the watchful eye of Hope Slaughter (Colman), a dangerous secret is unearthed and she is forced to confront the deadly tradition of her father’s church. 

A trailer for the film has been released online and can be seen below. Judging by that, this is going to be quite intense and creepy as hell.

Check out the trailer and see if THEM THAT FOLLOW looks like something you'd like to watch this August.
