An upcoming folk horror film is UNWELCOME on Shudder. We are dealing with ancient folklore because it takes place in Ireland. For some, it might be too slow, but overall, it worked for me. Here, you can read our full Unwelcome movie review!

A brand-new Shudder addition is UNWELCOME. a folk horror film set in the countryside of Ireland. We're dealing with "little folk," also known as goblins to you. Additionally, they are hungry for blood and meat.

The story begins in a very urban area; however, after reading the opening scene, you will realize why the newlywed couple is so content to leave.

In Unwanted, we meet the youthful wedded couple, Maya and Jamie. After attempting to conceive for a considerable amount of time, they are now expecting their first child.

They move to rural Ireland, where an aunt has left them a home, following a brutal attack in their home (and urban apartment). However, the rural tranquility they had hoped for does not result from their escape from their urban nightmare.

All things being equal, what they find in the Irish wide open are noxious and dangerous trolls called Redcaps. They reside in the woods near their newly planted garden. Their brand-new neighbors warn them and offer assistance, but can these city dwellers honor Irish mythology?

Unwelcome is directed by Jon Wright, who also wrote the screenplay with screenwriter Mark Stay. The 2014 film Robot Overlords was made by the two of them before. Ben Kingsley and Gillian Anderson were in that movie, so they know how to get big names.

Additionally, both films have IMDb scores of around 4 or 5, which seems unfair. to me at least. It's true that not everyone will enjoy this new movie. Unwelcome, on the other hand, definitely delivers as a creature feature.

Some people might not like the fast pace or the almost fairytale-like setting. Nevertheless, when there is a Shudder, you should give it a shot. At the end, it does get quite brutal!

On June 23, 2023, Unwelcome will debut on Shudder.
