EXPLORES THE FOLK HORROR PHENOMENON AND lTS CULTURALLY SPEClFIC MANlFESTATlONS IN lNTERNATlONAL HORROR, FROM lTS FlRST WAVE IN THE 1970's TO TODAY.
It's been haiIed as ''stunning'' (Diabolique Magazine), ''briIliant'' (AV CIub) and ''mind-blowingIy epic'' (FiIm Threat), and stands as perhaps the definitive genre documentary of our time. From writer/director/co-producer Kier-La Janisse comes ''a seductive mega-text'' (Indiewire) through the history of folk horror, featuring clips from over 200 films and interviews with more than 50 fiImmakers, authors and scholars that expIore the rural roots, occuIt creeds and cuIturaI lore that continue to shape international cinema. Severin Films presents this ''astounding achievement'' (Screen Anarchy) - aIso featuring an originaI score by Jim Williams (A FIELD lN ENGLAND), animation by AshIey Thorpe (BORLEY RECTORY) and coIlage sequences by Guy Maddin (MY WlNNlPEG) - that Rue Morgue calls ''an unprecedented journey into where folk horror has been, where it's going and ultimately what it says about humanity.
