Brandon Routh (Superman Returns, Scott Pilgrim) is dodging a whole lot of ICK in our exclusive new clip from director Joseph Kahn’s pop punk creature feature.
Fathom Entertainment brings Ick to select theatres in New York and Los Angeles for a one-week theatrical run starting Thursday, July 24, before expanding to theaters nationwide July 27-29.
In the film, “For almost two decades, a viscous vine-like growth known colloquially as ‘The Ick’ has benignly crept into every nook and cranny of American life while the residents of small town Eastbrook remain blasé about its existence. The exceptions are former high school football star-turned-hapless science teacher Hank (Routh) and his sardonically perceptive student Grace (Weissman), who are thrown together by Grace’s mom Staci’s (Suvari) closely-guarded secret and a mutual suspicion that the Ick is about to unleash some monstrous mayhem.
Watch the new clip below, which sees Routh’s Hank, a former high school football player who was sidelined by the Ick, forced to evade Ick’s growing mass across a football field to set a plan in motion.
Malina Weissman(Lemony Snicket’s Series of Unfortunate Events) andMena Suvari (American Beauty, American Pie) star alongside Harrison Cone, Debra Wilson, Taia Sophia, Zeke Jones, and Jeffrey Fahey. Ick is written by Samuel Laskey (The Guardians of Justice (Will Save You!)), Joseph Kahn, and Dan Koontz (C.C. Unit). Producers are Steven Schneider, Joseph Kahn, Peter Trinh, Joe Heath, David Kang, and Adi Shankar.
Ick is described as “a dizzyingly fun and hilariously grotesque homage to throwback PG horror flicks, as well as an ode to Millennial nostalgia manifested in soundtrack needle drops by All American Rejects, Paramore, and Blink 182.”
Joe Lipsett wrote in his TIFF review, “You know a Joseph Kahn film when you see one. There’s an approach to style, narrative, and editing akin to pure adrenaline; it’s as though the filmmaker drank a bunch of coffee, ate a bunch of candy, and then immediately made a movie. Ick, Kahn’s first feature since 2017’s Bodies, is pure sugar/caffeine rush.”
