Bagman
He's always closer than you think.
Directed by Colm McCarthy
Produced by Lionsgate, Temple Hill Entertainment
A supernatural home-invasion thriller that weaponizes childhood folklore and trauma, building dread through the return of a legendary predator to a family's sanctuary.
For centuries and across cultures, parents have warned their children of the legendary Bagman, who snatches innocent children and stuffs them into his vile, rotting bag—never to be seen again. Patrick McKee narrowly escaped such an encounter as a boy, which left him with lasting scars throughout his adulthood. Now, Patrick’s childhood tormentor has returned, threatening the safety of his wife Karina and son Jake.
