Antony Starr from THE BOYS fame stars in a new horror movie coming out soon. The trailer drop reveals more about the story.

Titled COBWEB, the story is about an eight-year-old boy called Peter, hearing knocks coming from inside his bedroom walls. But his parents think it is a part of his nightmares and dismiss it. 

But Peter is sure something else is going on. The knocks come every night and he begins to draw about them in school prompting his teacher to ask his parents if there is anything going on at home. 

This disturbs the parents and they pretty much scold Peter and warn him not to have nightmares. 

Soon enough Peter learns the origin of the knocks and finds bones as well leading him to believe that the people he trusts the most, his parents, may be hiding some dark and dangerous secrets from him. 

The movie is rumored to be inspired by The Tell-Tale Heart, a short story by Edgar Allan Poe. In the story, the narrator kills an old man because he had a vulture eye that distresses him. He eventually kills the old man, dismembers him, and buries him underneath the floorboards. 

When the police conduct an investigation, they sit at the very room, and place chairs on the very spot the old man is buried. The narrator is certain he can hear the old man’s heartbeat and that the police are pretending not to hear it. The narrator then break down and confesses to his murder. 

If COBWEB is based on this short story, then the family secret could be tied to a murder and the body could be hidden behind the walls. 

COBWEB also stars Lizzy Caplan, Cleopatra Coleman, and Woody Norman. 

The movie COBWEB releases on July 21st.
