The horror streaming service Shudder receives an exciting selection of goodies this summer as we dive into The Devil’s Bath!
As the summer months approach and the nights grow longer, Shudder offers a variety of terrifying content for horror fans. While there are only a few new releases this month, there is a treasure trove of chilling older films being added to the platform throughout June. This includes films featuring giant crocodiles, which will satisfy those with a taste for such content.
NEW RELEASES
The platform will only be releasing one new movie in June. However, the film is a must-see fright fest that is guaranteed to make you rethink your historical records. The Devil’s Bath is a chilling exploration of rural familial life in 1750 Austria. Day after day, Agnes is increasingly trapped in a murky and lonely path leading to evil thoughts until the possibility of committing a shocking act of violence seems like the only way out of her inner prison. Moreover, the film is based on historical court records about a surprising, hitherto unexplored chapter of European history.
And all that before we get into the new additions to Shudder’s customary film library. If you were hoping to be dragged down the rabbit hole of the giant crocodile B-Movies, you’re in for a real treat. But don’t just take my word for it. Grab the arm of your chair, move to the edge of your seat, and grab the cushions!
The Devil’s Bath – Film Premieres Friday 28 June
In 1750 Austria, a deeply religious woman named Agnes has just married her beloved, but her mind and heart soon grow heavy as her life becomes a long list of chores and expectations. Day after day, she is increasingly trapped in a murky and lonely path leading to evil thoughts, until the possibility of committing a shocking act of violence seems like the only way out of her inner prison. Giving a voice to the invisible and unheard women of the rural past, The Devil’s Bath is based on historical court records about a shocking, hitherto unexplored chapter of European history.
