Danish director Nicolas Winding Refn's (The Neon Demon, Drive, Only God Forgives) latest project, Her Private Hell, has been shrouded in secrecy since it was first announced, but we finally got some details last month.

The official synopsis reads: "As a strange mist engulfs a futuristic metropolis and unleashes an elusive deadly presence, a troubled young woman sets out in search of her father. During this quest, her fate crosses that of an American GI engaged in a desperate journey to snatch his daughter from Hell."

Sophie Thatcher (The Book of Boba Fett, Heretic, Companion) plays the "troubled young woman," and we have heard that the film will feature Refn's usual blend of surreal imagery and extreme violence.

The filmmaker hasn't said much about the movie himself, but did previously refer to his next project as "an original story full of glitter and a lot of sex and violence."

Her Private Hell screened out of competition at the Cannes Film Festival this evening, and the first reactions are starting to come in. Refn's films tend to be divisive in general, but these X posts - and there are only a few so far - are pretty scathing.

You can check out the first teaser below.
