Horror Thriller RAW Gets a U.S. Poster and Release Date

It caused quite the stir at TIFF this year, with reports of festival-goers passing out, and now Julia Ducournau’s Raw is set to make U.S. audiences squirm. The new poster – the close-up of a face with a bloody nose and the tagline “What are you hungry for?” – suggests an intense experience. I’m excited for this one.

After it screens at Sundance in January, Raw will open in select cities on March 10th, 2017.

Garance Marillier portrays the teenaged Justine, who commences her studies at veterinary school to follow in her family members’ footsteps. Raised as a vegetarian, Justine is pressured at school to try meat for the first time. Once she does, she plumbs both the depths of her own soul and tests the limits of her darkest cravings.
