Things get supernatural and sinister when a couple unwittingly awaken dark forces in Starve Acre, and an exclusive new clip highlights just how unsettling things will get when the locals get menacing.
Brainstorm Media releases Starve Acre in theaters and On Demand on July 26, 2024.
Starring Matt Smith (His House) and Morfydd Clark (Saint Maud) in the lead roles, Starve Acre is written and directed by Daniel Kokotajlo based on the book by Andrew Michael Hurly.
About Starve Acre, set in “1970s, rural England. Richard and Juliette’s seemingly idyllic family life is thrown into turmoil when their son starts acting out of character. At Starve Acre, their remote family home, archaeologist Richard buries himself in exploring a folkloric myth that the ancient oak tree on their land is imbued with phenomenal powers. While Juliette turns to the local community to find some kind of peace, Richard obsessively digs deeper. An unexpected discovery soon occupies the couple’s attention and dark and sinister forces, unwittingly allowed into the home, offer a disturbing possibility of reconnection between them.”
“We are very excited to bring this stellar addition to the folk horror canon to American audiences. Starve Acre is masterfully made and unsettling in all the best ways,” Michelle Shwarzstein, CEO, Brainstorm Media said previously in a statement.
I wrote in my review that “Kokotajlo crafts a moody, somber, and extremely stylish piece of folk horror with fantastic practical and digital effects. It’s anchored by two nuanced performances.”
Producers include Tessa Ross, Juliette Howell, Derrin Schlesinger, Emma Duffy.
Watch the new clip below that sees Morfydd Clark’s maternal instinct take over when she’s confronted with threatening behavior. It gets wild.
