Max haunted house horror-comedy The Parenting gets a trailer and poster

March 1, 2025 by Amie Cranswick

Max has shared a poster and trailer The Parenting, the upcoming horror-comedy from director Craig Johnson (The Skeleton Twins, School Spirits).

The film centres on couple Rohan and Josh as they hire a countryside home as the perfect weekend getaway to introduce their parents, but their idyllic break takes a dark turn when they discover the property is haunted by a 400-year-old poltergeist.

The cast includes Nik Dodani, Brandon Flynn, Brian Cox, Edie Falco, Lisa Kudrow, Dean Norris, Parker Posey, and Vivian Bang.

A hilariously terrifying comedy, THE PARENTING follows young couple Rohan and Josh as they plan a perfect weekend getaway in the country to introduce their parents. As tensions begin to flare between the more traditional Sharon and Frank and the laid-back Liddy and Cliff, the families soon realize that their rental – managed by eccentric local Brenda – is haunted by the presence of a 400-year-old poltergeist. When one parent becomes thoroughly possessed, it’s up to the young couple and their meddlesome BFF Sara to unite the families and stop the evil entity once and for all.

The Parenting premieres on Max on March 13th.
