Movie Review: Flay (2019)

Patricia (Peggy Schott) is one of those long sufferin’ artist types, but her problems are going to expand 666-fold as she acquires a cursed chain (which has been around since those days of covered wagons and rampant dysentery) which ends up resulting in a serious case of the deaths for anyone unlucky enough to come in possession of those loathsome links! Can Pat get her shit together and end the curse? Special effects wizard turned director Eric Pham and screenwriter Matthew Daley, aren’t exactly re-inventing the wicked wheel with Flay; this is your typical ancient curse causes mayhem in the modern day yarn at it’s heart… but goddamn do they manage to keep things fresh!

Enter ‘The Wicked Woods’ – Out Now On DVD And VOD

Enter The Wicked Woods – now out on DVD and VOD from Bayview Entertainment. A haunting, cryptic, ethereal mood piece that skillfully sustains an aura of dread and tension throughout. An unhappily married woman and her lover take a weekend retreat at a cabin in the woods to discuss their future. Soon, they find themselves besieged by forces outside the cabin, rushing past windows, making strange noises, appearing and then disappearing within the house; in the fog outside, they make themselves visible as a strange old man in trapper’s garb, a nude woman, and little children in cloaks. Only the sacrifice of one of them can save the other on a night when the portals of another dimension have opened to take their souls and punish them for their actions in life. Unconventional and enigmatic. In Spanish with English subtitles. Directed by Lucio A. Rojas, The Wicked Woods (aka Perfidy) starring Catherine Mazoyer, Iñigo Urrutia, and Daniel Antivilo, the film
