Hippie-dippie wellness retreat shows Joseph Gordon-Levitt its sinister side in Pendulum trailer
Norman Reedus and Jacki Weaver turn Joseph Gordon-Levitt's healing journey into the ayahuasca trip from hell in the trailer for Pendulum.
A wellness retreat with a sinister twist is revealed in the trailer for the upcoming horror film, Pendulum. Joseph Gordon-Levitt plays Patrick, a husband grappling with the challenges of love and support for his wife during a traumatic event. The story follows Patrick as he brings his wife to a seemingly hippie-dippie retreat, which is, in reality, far from what it appears to be.
The movie is said to be based on a true story and is directed by Mark Heyman, who co-wrote Black Swan, and produced by Darren Aronofsky. Patrick and his wife, Abigail (played by Phoebe Dynevor), find themselves at the retreat in New Mexico, where Abigail falls under the spell of enigmatic leader Jacki Weaver. Meanwhile, Patrick begins to suspect that something is wrong with the other residents of the retreat.
As Patrick stays at the New Mexico's cursed new-age retreat, he experiences frequent terrifying utterances of the phrase "death does not exist" and encounters creepy, crawling demons. The movie, which should have little to do with hangovers, is set to swing into theaters on January 1, 2027.
