Estimated reading time: 2 minutes

In the wake of his father’s untimely death, a young boy is left in the eerie solitude of a sprawling country estate with his newly widowed stepmother. His stepmother, struggling to navigate the overwhelming task of parenthood, grows distant, leaving their fragile bond at risk of collapse. Amidst the growing tension, the boy begins to hear unsettling sounds echoing through the corridors. Soon, he is haunted by the presence of a grotesque creature bearing a disturbingly familiar resemblance to his late father. But as the boy’s warnings are dismissed as the imagination of a grieving child, the sinister entity tightens its grip on their crumbling lives.

One of the film’s producers was quoted saying: “Daddy’s Head is one of the most singularly original genre films I’ve ever read. Combining rich and textured characters dealing with grief and the heart-breaking longing that a child experiences when losing a parent with a tense and horrifying creature feature will have audiences squirming in their seat.”

Written/directed by Benjamin Barfoot (Double Date).

Daddy’s Head premiered on Shudder on October 11, 2024.
