Derived from the interactive survivalist horror game, UNTIL DAWN is an original standalone story that expands upon the game series’ mythology, focusing on Clover and her friends, who head into the remote valley where Clover’s sister vanished in search of answers.
Exploring an abandoned visitor centre, they find themselves stalked by a masked killer and horrifically murdered one by one…only to wake up and find themselves back at the beginning of the same evening. Trapped in the valley, they’re forced to relive the night again and again – only each time the killer threat is different, each more terrifying than the last. Hope dwindling, the group soon realizes they have a limited number of deaths left, and the only way to escape is to survive until dawn.
As this wild, unpredictable adaptation arrives exclusively in theatres to terrorise audiences, Peter Gray spoke to star (and hopeful survivor) Michael Cimino about what fans of the game and the horror genre can expect, if he feels like he would’ve made the same moves as his character, and which video game he would personally like to visit the world of.
