POST MORTEM (HUNGARY)

North American Premiere. Director – Péter Bergendy
After surviving a near death experience during World War I, Tomás, a young photographer, ends up taking pictures of the dead and being drawn towards the paranormal. It’s not long before a young girl invites him to investigate her small village, which is being afflicted by a series of ghoulish hauntings. Billed as Hungary’s first ever true horror film, POST MORTEM is definitely one of the spookiest films in the Toronto After Dark lineup this year!

DITCHED (CANADA)

Director – Christopher Donaldson
This tense, survivalist siege horror gives a thrilling update to the John Carpenter cult classic, ASSAULT ON PRECINCT 13, complete with a scintillating synth score! After their ambulance crashes into a ditch in the forest, a group of survivors led by Melina, a young Inuit paramedic, find themselves surrounded by a mysterious group of brutal killers intent on their deaths.

THE FREE FALL (USA)

Canadian Premiere. Director – Adam Stilwell
In this terrifyingly claustrophobic and psychological horror thriller, Sara (NARCOS’s Andrea Londo) wakes from a coma to discover a life in a house, with a husband (X-MEN’s Shawn Ashmore) and a maid (Jane Badler, 1983’s “V” mini-series) she doesn’t remember. As her amnesia begins to fade, the chilling truth to her homelife begins to be revealed. A creepy treat from the executive producer of GET OUT, accompanied by a haunting score, composed by Joseph Bishara (MALIGNANT, THE CONJURING films, the INSIDIOUS films). Alas we have no official trailer for this brand new film, but trust us, it’s awesome!
