Shudder, AMC Networks’ premium horror streaming service, has a special gift just in time for Mother’s Day.

Shudder has acquired the rights to Z, the latest horror film from director Brandon Christensen (Still/Born).

The film stars Keegan Connor Tracy (Bates Motel), Sean Rogerson (Grave Encounters), Jett Klyne (The Boy), Sara Canning (The Vampire Diaries) and Stephen McHattie (Pontypool).

In Z, a young mother begins to fear her introverted son’s imaginary friend, Z, may be terrifyingly real. Shudder will release Z on May 7th.

“When Still/Born premiered on Shudder on Mother’s Day in 2018, it was clear that they understood what the film was going for and allowed it to shine,” said Christensen. “With Z, we once again have a film about a tortured mother and father, diving into the psyche of what it’s like to have a child with a mind of their own. I’m thrilled to be teaming with Shudder and once again releasing a film on Mother’s Day, where we can both celebrate and terrify mothers once again.”
