Devilish ‘Luciferina’ Trailer Calls Upon Satan
Translated as “Devilish”, Artsploitation has acquired Gonzalo Calzada’s bonkers Argentinian horror film Luciferina with plans for VOD release later this year. The Satanic horror film, starring Malena Sánchez, Desirée Gloria Salgueiro, Victoria Carreras, Gastón Cocchiarale, and Agustin Daulte, is now beginning its festival run through this summer.
Calzada directs a visually explosive film where religion, innocence, repressed sexuality and evil spectacularly collide.
“Natalia is a 19-year-old novice who reluctantly returns home to say goodbye to her dying father. But when she meets up with her sister and her friends, she decides instead to travel the jungle in search of a mystical plant. There, instead of pleasure, they find a world of Black Masses, strange pregnancies, bloody deaths and for the nun herself, a sexually violent clash with the Devil himself.”
Here’s the newly released trailer, although there are no English subtitles it’s clear this is going to be one fucked up horror film!
Christopher Landon (Happy Death Day, Freaky) is staying busy here in 2024, directing not only the werewolf movie Big Bad but also an upcoming thriller titled Drop.
The project for Blumhouse and Platinum Dunes is being described as a “fast-paced thriller,” and Deadline reports today that Violett Beane (Truth or Dare) has joined the cast.
Newcomer Jacob Robinson has also signed on to star in the mysterious thriller. Previously announced, Meghann Fahy (“White Lotus”) will be leading the cast.
Landon recently teased on Twitter, “This is my love letter to DePalma.”
Jillian Jacobs and Chris Roach wrote the script.
Michael Bay, Jason Blum, Brad Fuller and Cameron Fuller — “who brought the script in to Platinum Dunes” — are producing the upcoming Drop. Sam Lerner is an executive producer.
THR notes, “The film is a Platinum Dunes and Blumhouse production for Universal.”
