“The beasts are coming.” “There are beasts, too?” Netflix has revealed the first teaser trailer for a French adventure comedy movie titled Family Pack, and even though it has werewolves in it, it’s less of a horror than it is an action movie. Made by a French filmmaker named François Uzan, not to be confused with the other French filmmaker François Ozon. When night falls, and the players have their eyes closed, werewolves make victims among the villagers. The film is based a board game (known as “The Werewolves of Miller’s Hollow” from Zygomatic), and it’s about a family that is sent back to medieval times when they start playing the game. Kind of like the Jumanji movies, where they get sucked into the game – but this has werewolves in it they must fight off. Family Pack stars Franck Dubosc, Suzanne Clément, Jonathan Lambert, Grégory Fitoussi, Bruno Gouery, and Jean Reno. There isn’t a ton of footage in this teaser, but it does look like it should be plenty of fun for the whole family. Introduce your kids to werewolves, too…! Why not?
Here’s the first teaser trailer (+ poster) for François Uzan’s Family Pack, direct from YouTube:
“When night falls, and the players have their eyes closed, werewolves make victims among the villagers.” After discovering a mysterious card game, a family is thrust back in time to a medieval village where they must fend off dangerous werewolves each night. Family Pack, also known as Loups-Garous in French, is written and directed by French writer / filmmaker François Uzan, director of the film Say Cheese and the French TV series “Like-moi!” previously, and a writer of the “Lupin”, “Represent”, and “Le Signal” series. Adapted from the board game “The Werewolves of Miller’s Hollow” created by Hervé Marly and Philippe des Pallières. Executive produced by David Giordano. Netflix will debut Uzan’s Family Pack movie streaming on Netflix worldwide starting summer 2024. Stay tuned for an exact release date. First impression? Any good?
