Went Up The Hill – Watch Dacre Montgomery and Vicky Krieps in the trailer for the new ghost story

Abandoned as a child, Jack (Dacre Montgomery, STRANGER THINGS) travels to remote New Zealand for the funeral of his estranged mother, Elizabeth. There, he meets her widow, Jill (Vicky Krieps, PHANTOM THREAD, CORSAGE), and over the nights that follow, Elizabeth’s spirit begins to possess them in turn. What starts as a search for closure soon unearths deeper wounds.

Bound by grief and haunted by what remains, Jack and Jill must break free from Elizabeth’s grasp before she pushes them to the edge. Set against the deeply atmospheric backdrop of New Zealand’s South Island, WENT UP THE HILL is an intimate, modern ghost story from Samuel Van Grinsven that explores the legacy of loss and the struggle to let go.

Directed by Samuel Van Grinsven, the film stars Dacre Montgomery, Vicky Krieps, Arlo Green, and Sarah Peirse.

Went Up The Hill hits Digital on 26th September 2025.
