‘She Never Died’ Quietly Resurrected on VOD in Canada
Filmmaker Jason Krawczyk made a name for himself with his 2014-15 festival hit He Never Died, which starred Henry Rollins as Jack, a social outcast who embarks on a bloody quest to save his long-lost daughter from a crime syndicate.
Director Audrey Cummings put her own spin on the premise with the female-led follow-up, titled She Never Died, which quietly released today on VOD platforms in Canada via A71 Entertainment. It’s available through Apple TV, Bell, Rogers, Sasktel,
Shaw and Telus.
The new film, written by Jason Krawczyk, stars Olunike Adeliyi (Chaos Walking) as the title character, Lacey, a socially detached loner cursed with immortality. In her attempts to keep her compulsions in check, she seeks out the darkest souls humanity has to offer.
“Lacey must now face her own inner demons while simultaneously finding her next meal.”
Here are the official trailer and art for the Canadian release. There’s still no word on a U.S. distributor.
One of contemporary horror’s best werewolf movies is 2017’s Good Manners, and it’s finally set to receive a proper physical media release.
Icarus Films is partnering with OCN Distribution to unleash a new Blu-ray that’s now available to preorder via Vinegar Syndrome. and with a limited edition slipcover.
Set in São Paulo, the film follows Clara, a lonely nurse from the outskirts of the city who is hired by mysterious and wealthy Ana to be the nanny of her soon to be born child. Against all odds, the two women develop a strong bond. But a fateful night marked by a full moon changes their plans.
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.”
