Why 'The Blackcoat's Daughter' Has the Best Ending of Any Contemporary Horror Film [Horror Queers Podcast]

A24 is the best friend of us horror fans. They’ve been taking some huge risks with indie titles that typically would get dumped straight to VOD. It all started with the wild and crazy Spring Breakers and really gained footing when they released Jonathan Glazer’s Under the Skin (2013), which starred Scarlett Johansson as a mysterious young woman who seduces lonely men in the evening hours in Scotland.

While I despised Kevin Smith’s Tusk, A24 at least took a big risk, which you rarely see distributors do these days. We knew they were for real, however, when they got behind Ex Machina, before launching out of the gate with The Witch, Green Room, The Blackcoat’s Daughter, and more recently It Comes at Night and A Ghost Story. They’ve had various level of success but it’s all come with a love for the genre and a belief that it can do well.

They’ve apparently got plenty more horror films in the pipeline as they’ve dated two more for 2018, on both March 16th and April 27th. We haven’t the faintest clue as to what they are but we feel confident that they won’t disappoint. A24 has our backs, and we have theirs…

A yoga influencer discovers just how flexible fear can be in Mind Body Spirit, a new found footage horror movie that Welcome Villain Films is bringing to the table in a couple weeks.

Mind Body Spirit will release on Digital outlets May 7.

Get twisted with the official trailer and poster art below.

Matt Donato raved in his 4-star review, “Mind Body Spirit is a knockout horror session for the livestream era, which has me desperately waiting to see what its creators and stars do next.”

In Mind Body Spirit, “Anya, an aspiring yoga influencer, embarks on a ritual practice left behind by her estranged grandmother. She documents the practice on her YouTube channel for the world to watch, allowing her audience intimate access to her journey.

“But what starts as a spiritual self-help guide evolves into something much more sinister. As Anya becomes obsessed with the mysterious power of the practice, she unwittingly unleashes an otherworldly entity that begins to take control of her life – and her videos. Now Anya must race to unlock the truth, before her descent into madness threatens to consume her mind, body and spirit. By the time she reveals the true nature of the ritual, will it be too late?”

Mind Body Spirit was written and directed by Alex Henes & Matthew Merenda.

The upcoming horror film stars Sarah J. Bartholomew, Madi Bready, KJ Flahive, Anna Knigge, and Kristi Noory, and was produced by Dan Asma and Jesse McClung.
