Hulu Reveals First Look at Period Horror Film “Hold Your Breath”

If you're waiting for a trailer for a new horror movie starring Emmy winners Sarah Paulson (American Horror Story) and Ebon Moss-Bachrach (The Bear), you'll have to hold your breath. For now, Hulu has released a few stills to intrigue you.

Set during the Dust Bowl that ravaged Oklahoma in the 1930s, Hold Your Breath is a claustrophobic thriller that also stars Annaleigh Ashford, Alona Jane Robbins, Amiah Miller and Bill Heck. As storms rage outside, a family suffers inside when one woman (Paulson) becomes convinced there's something evil with them.

Check out the images below. Hold Your Breath streams exclusively on Hulu on Thursday, October 3.

About Kip Mooney

Like many film critics born during and after the 1980s, my hero is Roger Ebert. The man was already the best critic in the nation when he won the Pulitzer in 1975, but his indomitable spirit during and after his recent battle with cancer keeps me coming back to read not only his reviews but his insightful commentary on the everyday. But enough about a guy you know a lot about. I knew I was going to be a film critic—some would say a snob—in middle school, when I had to voraciously defend my position that The Royal Tenenbaums was only a million times better than Adam Sandler’s remake of Mr. Deeds. From then on, I would seek out Wes Anderson’s films and avoid Sandler’s like the plague. Still, I like to think of myself as a populist, and I’ll be just as likely to see the next superhero movie as the next Sundance sensation. The thing I most deplore in a movie is laziness. I’d much rather see movies with big ambitions try and fail than movies with no ambitions succeed at simply existing. I’m also a big advocate of fun-bad movies like The Room and most of Nicolas Cage’s work. In the past, I’ve written for The Dallas Morning News and the North Texas Daily, which I edited for a semester. I also contributed to Dallas-based Pegasus News, which in the circle of life, is now part of The Dallas Morning News, where I got my big break in 2007. Eventually, I’d love to write and talk about film full-time, but until that’s a viable career option, I work as an auditor for Wells Fargo. I hope to one day meet my hero, go to the Toronto International Film Festival, and compete on Jeopardy. Until then, I’m excited to share my love of film with you.
