Vishwaksen’s most intense outing yet, #CULT, has locked its theatrical release date. The ambitious slasher thriller is set to hit cinemas on October 30, shortly after the Dasara festival.
The makers officially announced the release date with a gripping glimpse that offers a deeper look into the film’s dark and violent world, while further heightening curiosity around its intriguing premise.
Written and directed by Vishwaksen, who also plays a crucial role in the film, #CULT marks a bold and completely different attempt from the actor-filmmaker.
The release-date glimpse immediately sets the tone, with Vishwaksen seen in a ruthless avatar.
The unsettling visuals are complemented by Ravi Basrur’s pulsating background score, which effectively builds tension.
The film had already generated curiosity with its first glimpse, which introduced its unusual premise and the world surrounding the story.
The first single, centred on friendship, also received a positive response, offering a contrasting emotional dimension to the otherwise dark narrative.
Produced by Sandeep Kakarala under the Tarak Cinemas banner, the film is being planned as a multilingual release in Telugu, Hindi, English, Japanese and Spanish.
