Puppets come to life in trailer for horror Separation

April 24, 2021 by Amie Cranswick

Open Road Films has shared a poster and trailer for the upcoming horror Separation which stars Violet McGraw as 8-year-old Jenny, a young girl grieving the death of her mother who finds solace in puppets based on the works of her father – until the frightening characters come to life that is, and threaten the lives of her family; watch it here…

8-year-old Jenny (Violet McGraw) is constantly caught in the middle of the feuding between her lawyer mother Maggie (Mamie Gummer) and artist father Jeff (Rupert Friend). She leads a lonely but imaginative life, surrounded by puppets called “Grisly Kin”, which are based on the works of her father. When Maggie is tragically killed in a hit-and-run, Jeff and Jenny try to piece together a new life. But when Maggie’s father (Brian Cox) sues for custody, and babysitter Samantha (Madeline Brewer) tries to be the new woman of the house, life in their Brooklyn townhome takes a dark turn. The puppets and frightening characters come to life and Jenny is the only person who can see them. When the motives of the ghoulish creatures become clear, the lives of everyone are put very much in jeopardy.

Separation is set for release on April 30th and stars Violet McGraw, Rupert Friend, Mamie Gummer, Brian Cox and Madeline Brewer.
