Get bewitched by the trailer for Heresy, which looks like The Witch through a Dutch folk horror lens.
Also known as Witte Wieven, the film streams next Friday, May 1, exclusively on Shudder.
Set in a medieval Dutch village, Heresy follows a young woman who is caught between her faith, fanatic townsfolk, and the dark forces lurking in the woods.
It marks the feature directorial debut of Didier Konings, a concept artist on the likes of “Stranger Things,” Ghostbusters: Afterlife, and Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness. He also has visual effects credits on The Conjuring 2 and Lights Out.
Anneke Sluiters, Len Leo Vincent, Reinout Bussemaker, Léon van Waas, and Nola Elvis Kemper star.
Marc S. Nollkaemper penned the script. Make Way Film and VPRO produce.
Heresy premiered at the 2024 International Film Festival Rotterdam and went on to play Fantastic Fest, Sitges, Screamfest, Grimmfest, and more.
