Amazon has released the trailer for Run Sweetheart Run , a Blumhouse horror that will be released on October 28 on Prime Video .
A first cut of the film debuted at Sundance in 2020, but production later returned to the set for reshoots, and the release was postponed by a couple of years.
Ella Balinska ( Charlie’s Angels ) plays Cherie , a single mother who agrees to go on a blind date with a client of her boss. The man is called Ethan ( Pilou Asbæk , Game of Thrones ), a very charming guy for whom Cherie feels an immediate attraction. Unfortunately, however, the reality is quite different: Ethan in fact begins to hunt her down, and she suspects that she is dealing with something non-human.
The trailer does not state this outright, but it seems that Ethan is a vampire, and that the only hope of salvation for the protagonist is to turn to the previous victims of the monster, who survived his sadistic game. The direction is curated by Shana Feste , known for The obstacles of the heart, Country Strong, An endless love and An amazing journey .
