The official synopsis for Last night in Soho reads,
“Eloise, a young woman with a passion for fashion design and a strange sixth sense, mysteriously finds herself transported back in time to 1966 in London. In the body of a singer named Sandy, she encounters her idol, a wannabe vocalist, but the 1960s London is not as it appears to be and the past and present seem to fall apart with shady and horrifying consequences.”
Talking about his impending horror adventure, Director and writer Edger Wright stated, “It will feel very different to my other films, but I’ve always liked films which have a slow burn into something else, and a lot of my movies have that feeling. Last Night starts in a more psychological realm and then starts to get increasingly intense as it goes along. And I always like to gravitate towards making a film in genres I miss, and there’s a certain type of psychological horror film that you got more in the ’60s and ’70s, that have something of an operatic nature. I’m using that kind of visual grammar.”
Last Night in Soho is slated to be released on October 22, 2021, by Focus Features in the United States and by Universal Pictures in other countries.
