The Accursed – Watch Yancy Butler, Izabela Vidovic and Goran Visnjic in the trailer for the new indie horror movie
The Accursed is from writer-director duo Elizabeta Vidovic and Kathryn Michelle.
Inspired by Eastern European folklore, an unthinkable betrayal leads to a maleficent curse being placed upon a family’s bloodline. Decades later, a wedding unites the next generation of the estranged family. When one of them knowingly awakens the dark forces that start picking them off one by one, matriarch Hana must figure out who is working against them before the bloody curse takes hold of them forever.
“This film sprouted from our love of horror,” the directors said in a joint statement. “It’s a genre that allows you to explore topics like family dynamics and betrayal through a different lens. The fantastical elements allow us to enhance the mystery and symbolism layered in the old world folklore we have in the film.”
Starring Yancy Butler, Izabela Vidovic, Goran Visnjic, Maiara Walsh, George Harrison Xanthis, and Melora Walters, The Accursed will be released in theaters and on demand on November 12th. You can pre-order it here.
