The renaissance of the horror genre shows no signs of slowing down, much to the delight of fans. And after MEGAN was a viral hitthere is one upcoming horror movie brings a new murderous robot to the screen. The first trailer for Submission just dropped, where Megan Fox is a robot that cleans, strips and tries to kill. And I’m honestly so sold on this concept from this limited material.
Some of best horror movies come from smaller companies, and Submission is an upcoming film that does not come from the giant studios. As you can see in the trailer above, the sci-fi film follows Megan Fox’s Alice as she is bought and taken home by a father and his daughter. But as is the case with so many AI movie robots, things take a dark and violent turn… but not before things get steamy between Fox and Michele Morrone.
The trailer opens at some sort of tech conference, attended by a father Nick and his daughter (played by Marrone and Matilda Firth respectively). A number of AI robots are shown doing things like housework, and they stumble across Megan Fox’s model named Alice. They decide to bring her home, unaware that their lives will seemingly be forever changed as a result.
Although things start well enough, Alice soon begins to operate with autonomy, rather than simply obeying orders and serving the family. Nick has sexual visions of the robot after they hook up and she helps around the house.
But things start to go awry when his wife (played by Nanny actress Madeline Zima) comes home. She is sick, a detail that Alice seems to cling to in her quest to claim Nick and the house as a whole. And there’s no telling the violent and/or sexual acts the robot will do to achieve its goal.
The footage for this trailer is definitely striking, and I have to give props to the editors for protecting the content. It’s pretty common (especially for horror movies) too trailers to reveal too muchwhich ruins the surprises that come with the theater experience. One thing is clear: MEGAN should watch out for this new robot in town.
This is just the latest on-screen endeavor for Fox, which follows her role in Consumables 4 and voice a character in the latest Mortal Kombat video game. While Submission looks like a smaller production than some of her other credits, it’s definitely exciting to see her back in the horror genre. No one could forget her iconic role in Jennifer’s bodywhich has become a cult classic in the years since its release.
Subservience is currently expected to arrive on digital platforms on September 13th. While we wait, check it out 2025 movie release date.
