New Red Band Trailer Teases a Terrifying Religious Horror: ‘Immaculate’

The upcoming, unnerving religious horror film Immaculate has released its chilling new red-band trailer. And it looks fantastic and eerie as hell. In the film, Sydney Sweeney stars as a staunchly religious woman named Cecilia. She is welcomed into a convent in Italy.

Centuries later, Gepetto finds the hidden stake in The “Cursed Woods.” Unaware of its curse, Gepetto uses the wood to carve Pinocchio, unleashing an evil force. The first poster for the indie film has been unleashed, and it’s creepy as hell, revealing
