Set to premiere exclusively on Shudder, AMC Networks’ premium streaming service for horror, thrillers, and the supernatural, ‘Quicksand’ will make its highly anticipated debut on Friday, July 14. Fans can also catch the film on AMC+.

In ‘Quicksand’, an American couple, teetering on the edge of divorce, embarks on a trip to Colombia for a work conference. While exploring the rainforest during a hike, a sudden storm ensnares them in a treacherous pit of quicksand. Immobile and trapped, they must confront the perils of the jungle and a venomous snake as they fight for their lives and struggle to find a way out.

Carolina Gaitán (featured in Encanto) and Allan Hawco (known for his role in Tom Clancy’s Jack Ryan) lead the cast, delivering captivating performances that bring the characters’ intense emotions to life.

Director Andrés Beltrán expressed his excitement about the project, saying, “Making ‘Quicksand’ was such a thrilling and challenging experience. I hope people can relate to the intense emotions Carolina and Allan portrayed so well. We shot the film on location, in a cold forest in the mountains of Colombia. Although the weather conditions were harsh for the actors and crew, we kept enjoying the process because we wanted to tell this story as real as possible.”

The film was produced by Jason Cherubini, Nicolás Reyes, and Sean Patrick Burke, with Richard Switzer, Martin Ramos, John Harris, and Kris Meyer serving as executive producers.
