do not speak evilStarring James McAvoy. Produced by Blumhouse Studios – to whom we owe the latest Halloween, but also Invisible Man, Insidious and M3GAN – the feature film follows the meeting of two couples during a trip to Italy. When Louise (Mackenzie Davis), Ben (Scoot McNair) and their daughter are invited to spend a few days with their new friends, nothing goes as planned. The vacation turns into a real nightmare when Paddy (James McAvoy) reveals his true nature.
