Shudder has released a poster and images for Nightwatch: Demons Are Forever, writer-director Ole Bornedal’s long-awaited sequel to the 1994 cult classic Danish horror Nightwatch, which sees Nikolaj Coster-Waldau, Kim Bodnia, and Ulf Pilgaard reprise their roles. Check them out here…
22-year-old medical student Emma (Fanny Leander Bornedal) has just taken a job as the night watch in the same forensic department where her parents were once almost killed by the famed psychopathic police inspector Wörmer. The events led to her mother’s suicide, and her father Martin (Nikolaj Coster-Waldau) has turned to tranquilizers to suppress the memories. Determined to investigate what exactly happened to them, Emma tracks down and confronts Wörmer, only to unintentionally reawaken his bloodthirst and ignite a violent revenge on everyone who sealed his destiny years ago.
Joining returning cast members Nikolaj Coster-Waldau, Kim Bodnia, and Ulf Pilgaard in the cast are Fanny Leander Bornedal, Sonja Richter, Casper Kjær Jensen, Paprika Steen, Nina Rask, Alex Høgh Andersen, Sonny Lindberg, Niels Anders Thorn, Tina Gylling, Casper Phillipson, Vibeke Hastrup, and Christopher Læssø.
Nightwatch: Demons Are Forever arrives on Shudder on May 17th.
