‘The Vigil’ Gets A Lit New Poster Ahead Of February Release

A lit new poster is here for writer-director Keith Thomas‘ fantastic, thrilling new supernatural horror, The Vigil which delves into ancient Jewish lore and demonology.

Witness The Bone-Chilling Trailer For ‘Sator,’ Inspired By True Events

Witness the bone-chilling trailer for director Jordan Graham’s supernatural horror Sator, inspired by his own life experiences. “Secluded home in desolate forest home to little more than the decaying remnants of the past, a broken family is further torn apart by a mysterious death. Adam, guided by a pervasive sense of dread, hunts for answers only to learn that they are not alone; an insidious presence by the name of Sator has been observing his family, subtly influencing all of them for years in an attempt to claim them.” The uniquely spectral horror-thriller blurs the line between fact and fiction as it’s core story, of a demon making contact with an intimate family, is inspired by director Jordan Graham’s own life. Sator is quite personal to me,” says Graham. “It delves into my family’s dark history with mental illness surrounding a supernatural entity, and uses home video footage to create an interwoven piece between documentary and fiction.” For years generations
