Good news, Hush fans! Mike Flanagan has announced that a new version of the movie is on its way, and it’s “absolutely absorbing”.
The hit horror film is getting the Snyder Cut treatment, with a new black-and-white, near-silent take that’s exactly how the filmmaker “originally envisioned” it to be.
“The B&W picture really ratchets up the tension, and the new audio mix – almost entirely devoid of music – is absolutely absorbing,“Flanagan tweeted. “THIS is how we originally envisioned the film. The ‘Shush Cut’ of HUSH makes its debut on 9/27 courtesy of [Beyond Fest], and we are honored to be part of such a killer lineup!”
That’s not all, either. On September 5, he shared that the movie was getting a physical home video release in the US, too, which will feature the ‘Shush Cut’ as part of its collector’s edition.
