Soul

Roh

Available: Sept. 2 - 12, All USA

A brother and sister find a strange girl wandering aimlessly in the woods and bring her home to their mother. That was their first mistake. After spending the night she delivers an ominous prophecy: Their family will all soon die. Terrible things start happening and other sinister strangers show up, looking to seal their fates. This eerily atmospheric folk horror tale marks the stunning directorial debut of seasoned visual effects artist Emir Ezwan. From the ominous lighting, off-kilter tone, isolated locations and strange goings on, Soul (Roh) is a visceral, spine-tingling revelation.
