Watch A Seance-Fueled Clip From ‘Dread’ Director’s ‘Cassadaga’!
Now on DVD and Blu-ray in the UK from G2 Pictures is Cassadaga, director Anthony DiBlasi’s much anticipated follow-up to his acclaimed Clive Barker adaptation Dread.
While we don’t have a taste of the demented puppet master nicknamed “Geppetto”, we do have an exclusive clip from the UK release that drops you right in the middle of a seance! Watch it after the break.
“‘Cassadaga’ is the story of Lily Morel, played by Kelen Coleman (‘Children of the Corn: Genesis’), who seeks solace at the spiritualist community of Cassadaga. But instead of finding closure, she contacts something else – the vengeful ghost of a murdered young woman. With her life crumbling all-around her, Lily races to unravel the mysterious circumstances surrounding the woman’s death – a task that will bring her face-to-face with a sadistic serial killer known only as “Geppetto”.“

Good Manners is the second collaboration between filmmakers Juliana Rojas and Marco Dutra, who write and direct. Zama’s Rui Poças‘ cinematography captures this unique werewolf tale described as “Disney meets Jacques Tourneur.”
Our own Trace Thurman wrote in his review, “With Good Manners, Rojas and Dutro have made one of the best werewolf movies ever made. That they are able juggle commentaries on racism and classism while still managing to tell two deeply affecting love stories is remarkable.”
