Director: Bryn Chainey

Cast: Dev Patel, Rosy McEwen, Jade Croot, Nicholas Sampson

Rabbit Trap is a 2025 American-British horror and mystery film directed by Bryn Chainey, starring Dev Patel and Rosy McEwen as a musician couple whose rural Welsh retreat pushes them toward something deeply unsettling — a sound that should not exist and a reality that slowly comes undone.

What is Rabbit Trap about?

Daphne and Darcy are two London-based musicians who trade the noise of the city for the quiet of a remote Welsh cottage, hoping the solitude will help them finish their new album. During a late-night recording session, their equipment captures an eerie, unidentifiable tone that no instrument in the room produced. What begins as curiosity — even artistic excitement — turns into unease as the sound keeps returning, subtly shifting the couple's perception of the world around them. Time feels elastic. Familiar faces seem strange. The cottage itself, with its stone walls and dense woodland surroundings, starts to feel less like shelter and more like enclosure. Chainey's film does not explain what the sound is; it lets the uncertainty breathe, watching how two people who love each other begin to lose their grip on shared reality.

Context & significance

Persian-speaking audiences abroad have long embraced atmospheric, psychologically driven horror — titles that rely on dread and ambiguity rather than shock. Rabbit Trap fits that taste precisely: it is a slow, rural horror set against the moody Welsh landscape, far from the slasher formula. For diaspora viewers who grew up with Persian folk tales of supernatural intrusion into ordinary life, the film's premise — a mysterious, unearthly sound that disrupts domestic peace — carries an intuitive resonance. Dev Patel's global profile also makes the film an easy recommendation across Persian-speaking communities worldwide. The title is available on K-Time with a full Persian dub and Persian subtitles, so viewers can choose their preferred experience.
