Your support makes all the difference.David Robert Mitchell broke through with thoroughly creepy horror It Follows in 2014 before going quiet.
He returns this year however with Under the Silver Lake, an entirely different proposition billed as a neo-noir crime thriller.
The first trailer dropped this morning, showing off what looks like a cross between Zodiac, Inherent Vice and something generally much lighter and more comedic.
Andrew Garfield and Riley Keough star, supported by Girls' Zosia Mamet and WestWorld's Jimmi Simpson.
The synopsis is as follows:
'Sam, an affable but aimless young man, becomes an unwitting detective who quickly finds himself in over his head as he investigates the mysterious disappearance of his beautiful neighbor, with whom he has fallen in love. As he combs through Los Angeles searching for any kind of clues he can find, he stumbles upon a larger, more sinister conspiracy than he ever imagined, involving billionaires, celebrities, urban myths, and even pop culture as we know it.'
Indie powerhouse A24 acquired rights to Under the Silver Lake, which is scheduled for release on 22 June, 2018.
