Here’s a look at an upcoming horror movie named Amulet which just shot to the top of our radar for later in the year. Carla Juri, Alec Secareanu, Imelda Staunton, and Angeliki Papoulia lead out the cast of the film which comes out later this month. Romola Garai directs.
Here is the story synopsis.
Following an accident that leaves him homeless in London, former soldier Tomaz is brought to the rotting home of Magda, a lonely woman in desperate need of help as she looks after her dying mother. Though at first resistant, Magda eventually welcomes him into their lives and allows him to help her care for them. But as he worms his way into their routine and begins to fall for Magda, Tomaz starts to notice strange, unexplainable, and ugly phenomena. Something seems very wrong with the mysterious old woman who never leaves the top floor, and Magda may in fact be enslaved to do her otherworldly bidding.
Magnolia are releasing this Stateside on 20th July (cinemas and on-demand services) with other territories, including the UK to follow. Here’s the trailer.
