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!
