Adams Family Unveils Gripping ‘Mother of Flies’ Trailer Ahead of 2026 Premiere

BREAKING: The Adams Family, renowned for their indie horror films, has just released a chilling first look at their latest project, Mother of Flies. Premiering on Shudder on January 23, 2026, this new horror masterpiece promises to push boundaries and grip audiences worldwide.

In a haunting trailer, the film follows a family grappling with the imminent death of young Mickey, who faces a terminal diagnosis. In a desperate bid to save her life, Mickey’s father, Jake, reluctantly seeks the help of a local witch named Solveig, known for her dark and enigmatic powers. As the trailer reveals, their journey leads them into a harrowing three-day ordeal filled with gruesome rituals and spine-tingling horrors.

With intense imagery of maggots, desiccated corpses, and unsettling body horror, the stakes are alarmingly high. Solveig cryptically warns, “To rule death, one must love it… lie with it.” This sets the stage for a gripping narrative where the quest for life might unleash a far greater evil.

Directed and written by the talented trio of John Adams, Zelda Adams, and Toby Poser, the film is not just a family affair behind the camera. It stars Lulu Adams, James Lindsay, Noble Wilson-Eiden, and Jessica Beveridge. The eerie score is crafted by the family’s band, H6LLB6ND6R, further intertwining their artistic vision.

This much-anticipated film premiered at Fantastic Fest last summer, receiving rave reviews and currently boasting a 100% Fresh rating on Rotten Tomatoes. Critics have hailed it as a gripping exploration of life and death, making it a must-watch for horror fans.

The Adams Family, not to be confused with the fictional Gomez and Morticia, are self-taught filmmakers who gained recognition with their breakout feature Hellbender. Filmed during the COVID-19 pandemic, Hellbender became a sleeper hit on Shudder and showcased their unique storytelling style. Their previous works include The Deeper You Dig and Where The Devil Roams.

As Mother of Flies gears up for its premiere, horror enthusiasts worldwide are eagerly awaiting what promises to be another groundbreaking entry in the genre. Stay tuned for more updates as the release date approaches, and prepare for a film that questions the very fabric of life and death.
