Magnet Releasing has just shared the first trailer for Amulet, the feature directorial debut of actress-turned-filmmaker Romola Garai that is set for release in theaters and on demand July 24.
The trailer shows a film that borrows from The Exorcist in that an amulet leads to demonic possession. It looks like yet another great religious-themed horror film to go along with A24’s forthcoming Saint Maud.
“Amulet follows Tomaz (Alec Secareanu), a former soldier who is left homeless after an accident and takes refuge in the decaying home of Magda (Carla Juri), a lonely young woman in desperate need of help as she cares for her ailing mother. At first hesitant, Magda soon welcomes Tomaz into their lives. But as he gets closer to and begins to fall for Magda, Tomaz notices strange and unexplainable phenomena. Something seems very wrong with the mysterious old woman who never leaves the top floor, and Tomaz begins to suspect that Magda may in fact be a prisoner to her otherworldly bidding.”
The film world premiered to critical and audience acclaim in the Midnight section at Sundance. Meagan Navarro reviewed Amulet, writing that the film “sleepwalks through philosophical horror until [an] audacious finale.”
