'False Positive' Trailer: Ilana Glazer Stars In New A24 Childbirth Horror Film Coming To Hulu In June

A24‘s faith in the horror genre continues with “False Positive.” If Ari Aster, Robert Eggers celebrated films (“Hereditary,” “The Witch“) provided a modern update to the folk horror and demonic possession tropes from ’70s horror, it sounds like this film, “False Positive,” is a “Rosemary’s Baby” for the 21st century.

After months of trying and failing to get pregnant, Lucy and Adrian finally find their dream fertility doctor in the illustrious Dr. Hindle.

Glazer co-wrote “False Positive” alongside director John Lee, and both serve as producers for the film alongside Jonathan Wang (ironically, Glazer is pregnant right now). Lee is best known for his career in television and as a musician. His directing work is eclectic and diverse, to say the least, with a wide variety of shows for Adult Swim, Comedy Central, and MTV2, including the cult show “Wonder Showzen” and the Glazer-led “Broad Street.”  He also directed 2016’s “Pee-Wee’s Big Holiday.”

Where will “False Positive” fall on the A24 horror spectrum — near “Midsommar” or somewhere closer to Kevin Smith‘s 2014 disaster “Tusk“? Find out on June 25, when the film premieres exclusively on Hulu.
