Horror movie produced by Ryan Gosling takes place in rural Oregon

0

PORTLAND, Ore. (KOIN) — A Ryan Gosling-produced horror movie that takes place in Oregon has made its world debut.

Production company Blumhouse’s “Wolf Man” premiered in theaters worldwide on Jan. 17. Although the film is set in the Pacific Northwest, IMDb lists New Zealand as its shooting location.

The rated R movie features “Poor Things” actor Christopher Abbott and “Ozark” star Julia Garner as Blake and Charlotte, a struggling married couple who leave San Francisco for a woodsy getaway with their daughter.

The horror is mostly set in and around the husband’s rural Oregon childhood home, which he inherited from his father who mysteriously disappeared and was declared dead. Blake’s family is forced to barricade themselves inside the residence after an attack from an unseen animal.

“As the night stretches on, however, Blake begins to behave strangely, transforming into something unrecognizable, and Charlotte will be forced to decide whether the terror within their house is more lethal than the danger without,” the “Wolf Man” synopsis reads.

It serves as a reboot for the 1941 movie of the same name, except this time, it is directed by Leigh Whannell. He’s well known for 2020 science fiction film “The Invisible Man,” starring Elisabeth Moss as another protagonist who battles an unseen figure.

The Australia-born Whannell has also worked on Blumhouse’s “Upgrade” and “Insidious: “Chapter 3.”
