EVIL RIVER is an independent horror film shot in Italy by director Marco Rosson and
produced by Giorgio Ettore Galbiati. The film is inspired by the classic Italian movies of the 70’s and 80’s and it takes inspiration by masters such as Mario Bava, Dario Argento and Lucio Fulci. The movie has gained a very positive response in a considerable quantity of festivals. To be exact, Evil River has received 29 awards around the world including the Los Angeles Film Award for best horror, the Tabloid Witch Award for best editing and best soundtrack and the Horror Hotel Film Fstival.

The film will be released in the United States and Canada on DVD and VOD and it will be
distributed by the Wild Eye Releasing company with a new title: EVIL RIVER.

Director Marco Rosson stated, that they “are very pleased to have found a serious distribution
that allows us to release our little independent film. Also in the U.S. Evil River was shot in
just nine days with a very limited budget (approximately 7500 Euros). The fact that we have
received all the awards at the various film festivals and having found a distribution that has
immediately believed in our project, rewarded the hard work done”

Synopsis: Emma is a university professor visiting the small northern Italian town of Voghera, who wants to carry out a study on the bizarre case of the so-called Shanda’s river.
The river was renamed after the brutal murder of a young female peasant Shanda,
accused and executed for being a witch in the early 19th century. A local girl Giulia has
been organizing for several years a river sightseeing tour narrating the story of the witch
Shanda. Emma wants to take part of the tour but gets caught up in a curse that forces her
to relentlessly repeat that same day. She’ll keep waking up in her hotel room at 4 am and
constantly getting killed by two cult members (enigmatic individuals wearing a mask). Thanks to another member of the tour, Daniel Roth, Emma will unveil the secret of this
curse and will resiliently try, by all means, to get out of the loop

EVIL RIVER - official trailer

Something about this trailer truly stood out to me. Whether it was the concise duration of it altogether. Perhaps it was the epileptic-seizure inducing footage. It could have possibly been the content nature making you think to yourself: WTF did I just watch? Whatever the scenario might be, this trailer sent an eerie chill down my spine and has me begging to see what else this film will offer!
