Trap (2024)
Oscar-nominated writer-director M Night Shyamalan (The Sixth Sense, Old) is back with Trap, starring Josh Hartnett (Oppenheimer) as a father who treats his teen daughter to a pop concert, where they realise they’re at the centre of a dark and sinister event.
Hartnett cracked the Top 10 for Best Performance in Indiewire’s 2024 Critics' Poll and won Best Actor at the 2025 Golden Scythe Horror Awards, while Trap was nominated for a Dorian Award for Campy Flick of the Year at the 2025 GALECA Awards.
ScreenCrush calls Trap, “The most overtly Hitchcockian thing Shyamalan’s ever made,” while TheWrap says it’s “one of his best thrillers.”
