Daniel Radcliffe’s going through hell and fights to keep a promise.
HORNS hits UK cinemas today and to celebrate the release of the movie, Lionsgate have released a new clip from the fantasy thriller.
Director Alexandre Aja is no stranger to making spine chilling films, having made THE HILLS HAVE EYES reboot and PIRANHA 3D and his latest fiendish film is based on the book by Stephen King’s son Joe Hill and released in cinemas October 29th.
The off-beat thriller sees Radcliffe play radio DJ Ig Perrish, who is wrongly accused of his girlfriend’s Merrin Williams’ (Juno Temple) violent rape and killing and as a result, he becomes exiled from his small American hometown.  After a hard night of drinking, Ig awakes on the anniversary of Merrin’s death to find horns growing from his head.
He discovers they have the ability to drive people to confess their sins and give in to selfish impulses. Ig decides to use this tool to discover the circumstances of his girlfriend’s death and to seek revenge by finding the true murderer.
In the exclusive clip we see Daniel Radcliffe‘s Ig promise girlfriend Merrin Williams (Juno Temple) that he will love her ‘for the rest of my life” as they lie together in a touching scene on a picnic blanket. But as we know, one of their lives does not last very long…
Over the last couple of weeks, the promotions have gone into overdrive and they’re fantastic. You can watch a clip of Ig begging a priest for help, and also see how Ig has to adjust to the growing horns from his head.
With Alexandre Aja in the director’s chair and David Morse, Max Minghella, Kathleen Quinlan, Heather Graham and James Remar among those filling out the cast, Horns arrives in the UK on October 29th and in the US on Halloween.
