“A great deal of fun. Nick Frost’s twisted new horror comedy is a bloody delight. Left me grinning and chuckling in delight.”

“A welcome destination for horror fans. Frost’s script is rather hilarious… A vacation nightmare in the vein of Midsommar and Sightseers.”
– Matthew Donato, Collider
“Get Away utilizes a folk horror backdrop to great effect, and the ensemble cast is phenomenal across the board. Hits all the right notes, and Frost is, of course, a delight.

Synopsis
The Smith family’s much-needed vacation to the remote Swedish island of Svalta takes a dark turn when they arrive during preparations for a mysterious local festival that celebrates a dark history. Unsettled by the unfriendly locals and strange rituals, they try to make the best of their trip, stubbornly enjoying the island’s isolation and natural beauty. However, as the festival looms closer, the family realizes something far more sinister is unfolding—especially when they discover that a serial killer is on the loose.
About the Director
Steffen Haars first rose to prominence as founding member of the Dutch comedy group “New Kids” — with creative partner, Flip VanderKuil — for which they wrote, directed, starred and edited material. A TV adaptation of “New Kids” from 2007 to 2009 proved to be so successful that it spun off into a 2010 feature film, New Kids Turbo, which became a smash hit in the Netherlands and Belgium and spawned a significant cult following throughout northern Germany. The film shattered Dutch box office records and was quickly followed by a sequel, New Kids Nitro, in 2011. Steffen and Flip followed up their “New Kids” work with two other Dutch features: Bro’s Before Ho’s in 2013 and Ron Goossens: Low Budget Stuntman in 2017, both of which also topped Dutch box office results.
