A24 has a Halloween treat for horror fans, as it will make its latest genre entry, Lamb, available to stream online for one-night only via its A24 Screening Room on Oct. 26. Lamb was released on Oct. 8 in the U.S. and is still currently in theaters. The online screening will only be available to those in the U.S. or Canada.
Lamb stars Noomi Rapace (Prometheus, Sweden’s The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo) and Hilmir Snær Guðnason as a childless couple who discover a mysterious newborn on their farm in Iceland. The unexpected prospect of family life brings them much joy, before ultimately destroying them. The film was directed by Valdimar Jóhannsson, who also co-wrote the script with Sjón.

After purchasing the ticket, the film can be watched on a compatible computer, phone or tablet, with the ability to either connect one of these devices to or cast to a TV.
