Be one of the first in the world to see PRIMATE, the new Paramount Pictures horror that wowed the crowds at its World Premiere this month.
Third screening in the world ever! Fully practical chimpanzee effects! Not in cinemas until 2026!
“If you wish that Nope had just doubled-down on the chimp violence, Primate is absolutely the blood-flavored popcorn flick you’ve been waiting for.” – Richard Whittaker, Austin Chronicle
-- After returning home to Hawaii for summer break, Lucy is reunited with her father Adam, sister Erin and their pet chimpanzee Ben. Lucy and her friends Kate, Hannah and Kate’s older brother Nick decide to throw a pool party to take advantage of an empty house after Lucy’s father is called away for work. Unbeknownst to them, Ben is bitten by a rabid animal and the gentle chimpanzee they once knew is no more. The group is forced to barricade themselves in the pool, but with no means of calling for help, they must work together to figure out how to outsmart the now ferocious Ben and survive their ordeal. --
Directed by Johannes Roberts, PRIMATE stars Johnny Sequoyah, Troy Kotsur and Jessica Alexander.
