The Wilding

Set in suburban North Carolina, “The Wilding” follows the fractured Hayes family as they attempt to rebuild their lives amidst sinister, supernatural forces. Looking to leave their troubled past behind, George and Margaret try to help their daughter Kayla, a 17-year-old haunted since childhood by strange visions of the dead. Seeking answers for their daughter’s recurring hallucinations, they begin to suspect that she may be a Wilding... possessing untold supernatural abilities.

Directed by Ciarán Foy, The Wilding leans on a strong ensemble — Jordana Spiro, Antonio Jaramillo, Nadia Alexander — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.

The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about horror titles of 2016.
