Kate Hudson embraces freakiness in trailer for supernatural thriller Mona Lisa and the Blood Moon

In the trailer for Mona Lisa and the Blood Moon (which you can exclusively see above) Kate Hudson's character reveals that she knew something freaky was going to happen on this particular night. "With a full moon, I like feel it in my ovaries, I swear to god," she continues.

Cinephiles will be similarly unsurprised that this thriller takes a walk on the wild side given that the movie's writer-director is Ana Lily Amirpour, the auteur responsible for 2014's Farsi-language vampire-western A Girl Walks Home Alone at Night and 2016's post-apocalyptic cannibal-romance The Bad Batch.

In Mona Lisa and the Blood Moon, Hudson plays a struggling single-mother who befriends a mysterious mental institute escapee (Jun Jong Seo) with supernatural powers and sees an opportunity to make some fast cash. But when they draw the attention of a detective (Craig Robinson), their luck starts to run out as the cops close in one their crime spree.

Mona Lisa and the Blood Moon will be released in theaters, on digital, and on demand Sept. 30.
