"Make him pay." Paramount Movies / Republic Pictures have revealed the official trailer for a very cheesy revenge thriller called Hard Home, arriving to watch in June this summer. This is skipping theaters and heading straight to VOD to catch at home if anyone cares. A mother who is deeply saddened by a loss lures her daughter’s killer into her smart home in order to take revenge, and gets involved in a distorted cat-and-mouse game where life and death are at stake. Simone Kessell stars in this action-packed revenge-thriller, another one involving one of these "high-tech homes" that has tons of contraptions (also see: Inside, Tau, Breaking In). In addition to Kessell, this also stars Joseph Millson, Rachel Adedeji, Daphne Cheung, Rosie Day, and Andrew Howard. Should be no surprise that this looks terrible - not even worth a rental.

Here's the official trailer (+ poster) for James Bamford's film Hard Home, direct from YouTube:

Simone Kessell stars in this action-packed revenge-thriller. After the shocking murder of her daughter, a woman turns her high-tech home into a trap for the killer, initiating a deadly cat-and-mouse game where every move can be fatal. Hard Home is directed by the Canadian stuntman / filmmaker James Bamford, also a stunt coordinator, and director of the films Jade and Air Force One Down previously, plus extensive work directing for the "Arrow" series. The screenplay is written by Mark Shea Price. It's produced by Steven Paul. This hasn't premiered at any film festivals or elsewhere, as far as we know. Republic Pictures debuts Bamford's Hard Home direct-to-VOD to watch starting June 25th, 2024 this summer. Anyone into this?

How far would you go to avenge someone's death? That's the question that will bounce around in your head while you watch Hard Home. The horror/thriller movie stars Simone Kessell, who fans of Yellowjackets know pretty well. She plays Mary, a woman who decides to use her high-tech house to trap a killer. Their dynamic becomes a cat-and-mouse game in which only one will come out alive, and you can get a taste of it with the trailer that Republic Pictures (a Paramount Pictures label) provided to Collider..

The trailer makes one thing perfectly clear: Mary is a woman in pain. It's impossible not to relate: her daughter was a victim of a lunatic killer and she can't move on from that. Luckily for Mary, the house she lives in is a technological wonder that can be turned into a massive weapon rigged with traps for any unwanted visitor that crosses the front door. She then lures the killer in and it's showtime.

From the looks of it, Hard Home will turn psychological tension up all the way to 11, since Mary herself is also in danger once she locks herself in with the killer. We all know the kinds of things that can happen in a closed scenario — one misstep from the grieving mother and the killer could get the advantage he needs to finish the job. For thriller and horror film fans, this means that Hard Home is a must-watch that has to be at the very top of your watchlist next month.

Who Is The Team Behind 'Hard Home?'

Hard Home is directed by James Bamford. The filmmaker worked for many years as a stunt performer and stunt coordinator, so it's safe to say that Bamford has used his keen eye to make his new movie an experience whose physicality is thrilling for whoever watches it. He previously directed episodes from Arrow, Supergirl and Superman and Lois. This is his third feature film.

Aside from Kessell, the cast of Hard Home also features Joseph Millson (Casino Royale), Rachel Adedeji (Champion), Daphne Cheung (Red Eye), Rosie Day (Outlander), Teresa Cendon-Garcia (Jurassic World Dominion) and Andrew Howard (Mayor of Kingstown). The screenplay is by Mark Shea Price, who previously penned short films and now is making a feature film writing debut.

Hard Home becomes available to buy on digital on June 25. You can watch our exclusive trailer above and the brand-new poster below:
