The first four horror films in a planned eight-film anthology from Blumhouse Productions, Welcome to the Blumhouse, <\/i>are officially coming to Amazon Prime Video in October. The announcement was made via a short teaser trailer that covered all four films, set to a creepy cover of 4 Non-Blondes’ “What’s Up” by the Canadian musician FJ\u00d8RA. This first wave of movies are collaborations between Blumhouse Productions (Get Out, The Hunt, You Should Have Left) <\/i>and Amazon Studios, with Blumhouse’s Jason Blum as executive producer on each one.<\/p>\n

Black Box, <\/i>the first feature-length film directed by Emmanuel Osei-Kuffour Jr., stars Mamoudou Athie (Sorry For Your Loss, <\/i>the forthcoming Jurassic World: Dominion) <\/i>as a man who loses both his wife and his memory in a car accident. He opts to undergo, to quote the press release, “an agonizing experimental treatment<\/a> that causes him to question who he really is.” Black Box <\/i>also stars Phylicia Rashad, Tosin Morohunfola, Charmaine Bingwa, and Troy James.<\/p>\n
