Soon after the incident, Rose begins seeing strangers with terrifying smiles and experiences disturbing hallucinations that no one else can see.

Rose realizes that the sinister entity feeds on trauma and passes from one victim to another through acts of extreme violence. Blending psychological horror with supernatural suspense, Smile explores grief, guilt, mental illness, and unresolved trauma while delivering unforgettable jump scares and a chilling atmosphere that keeps viewers on edge until its shocking finale.

More details about Smile and where you can watch

Smile was one of the biggest surprise horror hits of 2022, earning over $217 million worldwide on a budget of around $17 million. The film is based on Parker Finn’s award-winning short film Laura Hasn’t Slept, which inspired the feature-length story.

Unlike many horror films that rely heavily on gore, Smile creates fear through disturbing smiles, psychological tension, eerie sound design, and unexpected jump scares. Its story also explores themes of trauma, grief, and mental health, giving the supernatural horror a deeper emotional impact.

The movie became famous for its viral marketing campaign, featuring actors with creepy smiles at live baseball games, and Sosie Bacon’s powerful performance received widespread praise. Its success led to the release of Smile 2, expanding the franchise.
