Back to basics for The curse
In the 70s it wasn’t just there The exorcist (1974) which left its mark. As for horror cinema, The curse (1976) it also had its little effect. Directed by Richard Donner, the film follows the daily life of a couple expecting their first child. But when the child is born, he dies. The father then decides to replace him without his wife’s knowledge with another whose mother died giving birth to him. Except that after a few years, the orphan called Damien will start behaving very strangely. And the deaths around him will multiply. A priest will then affirm it the child is none other than the Antichrist!
Although less memorable than The exorcist, The curse it remains a cult horror film that has spawned numerous anecdotal sequels. Hollywood intends to revive the saga with The curse: the origina prequel directed by Arkasha Stevenson and which is revealed with a first trailer that makes its impact.
A very successful trailer for the prequel
In fact, it’s rare for promotional videos to stand out from the crowd. However, this first trailer of The curse: the origin (video on the first page of the article) it’s a real success. Without saying too much, but by showing surprising images of a smoking environment, she immediately feels a feeling of anxiety. The images edited backwards cause a strange sensation, as do some very disturbing furtive shots. Let’s think about this little insect that moves on the actress’s cheek Nell Tiger free and goes towards his eye. The actress’s dark gaze is fascinating and the final close-up on one eye is particularly uncomfortable.
Visually there is nothing to say about the trailer The curse: the origin very tempting. From the point of view of the scenarios, we will have to see if the proposal is up to par. We know it will be about a young American sent to Rome to enter a convent. He will confront the darkness and question your faith. But above all he will discover a terrifying conspiracy led by characters who seek to do so give birth to evil incarnate…
The film will be available to discover April 10th at the cinemaand is part of our list of horror films expected for 2024.
