Indonesian filmmaker Joko Anwar‘s (Satan’s Slaves) horror movie Impetigore is coming to Shudder this week, and we’re previewing the film with a new image gallery today.
The film premieres July 23 only on Shudder. Check out the gallery below.
“After surviving a murder attempt in the city, Maya, a down-on-her-luck young woman, learns that she may inherit a house in her ancestral village. With her friend Dini, Maya returns to the village of her birth, unaware that the community there has been trying to locate and kill her to remove the curse that has plagued the village for years. As she begins to discover the complicated reality about her past, Maya finds herself in a fight for her life.”
Tara Basro, Ario Bayu, Marissa Anita, Christine Hakim and Asmara Abigail star.
“Impetigore is my love letter to horror movies I grew up with, slashers, ghost stories, wrapped in a tragic family drama not unlike my family,” Joko Anwar recently said in a statement.
Meagan Navarro wrote in her Sundance review earlier this year, “Drawing inspiration from the likes of The Texas Chain Saw Massacre, Impetigore eschews jump-scare laden haunted house fare in favor of languid-paced taboo-breaking horror.”
