Lukas and Elias Schwars play your character's twin sons. But you sense it from the very first moment on. Because you can see it creeping in, but it’s not really in front of your nose. I think the calmer and more silent something evil happens, the worse it gets. There is a big calmness that exists over the whole setting, The house is a character in this film.

We caught up with her recently while she watched the sunset in the Alps to discuss the film she says not to watch before bedtime-and ask what the hell it's like to let a live cockroach crawl into your mouth. You can watch an exclusive clip below to get a glimpse of Wuest in her dark, beautiful portrayal of the mother. She might still be, if only they could see beneath the bandages covering her recently reconstructed face and the strange behavior she's brought home from the hospital. It's a surprising climax, one that grows organically from the relationship between two young twin boys and the woman, played by Susanne Wuest, who was once their mother.


It crawls to its climax, with a slow-burning tension built on beautiful shots of the Austrian/Czech countryside, tangible but unseen terrors lurking in its dimly lit corners. But, it being a horror movie, we mean that in the most complimentary way possible. It hits theaters this Friday, September 11, and it is indeed straight fucked up-and then some.
