Directed and co-written by Gerard McMurray, this chilling tale is set against the haunting backdrop of Louisiana’s cane fields and plantations, promising a uniquely eerie atmosphere.

With a strong cast and a visionary director at the helm, Goons is shaping up to be a standout entry in the horror genre.
Michael Rainey Jr. took to Instagram to share a few photos from the set.
