New horror movie from Longlegs director The Monkey will be the first film ever to screen in churches and theaters simultaneously

The Monkey.

Plenty of horror movies have found their way into churches, but The Monkey has become the first ever film to screen in them and theatres simultaneously across America. All you've got to do is fill out a form to have the horrifying little nuisance pay a visit.

The new movie stars Theo James as two twin brothers who find themselves haunted by a cursed toy monkey that leaves a trail of horrific accidental deaths behind it. Of course, these instances aren't accidents—it's the monkey. The film is adapted from a short story penned by Stephen King (some small-time author, the name sounds familiar) in 1980, which eventually made its way into his short story collection, Skeleton Crew. King himself called the adaptation of his story "batshit insane."
