What It's About: A couple has their peaceful life disrupted when their home is invaded by unexpected guests.

Why It Might Save Hollywood: Writer-director Darren Aronofsky is playing his cards incredibly close to the chest with his new psychological horror flick, and beyond that piecemeal logline and casting information (it stars Jennifer Lawrence, Javier Bardem, Michelle Pfeiffer, Ed Harris, Kristen Wiig and Domhnall Gleeson), almost nothing is known.

Still, Aronofsky is a one-of-a-kind talent, and after the big-budget thrills of 2014's Noah, it'll be nice to see him back in a more familiar, lower-budget wheelhouse. Expect a tone close to Black Swan based on the little we know so far, but honestly, anything could happen, and that's incredibly exciting.
