Shudder Day: Queen of Black Magic (2019)

 Back when I got DVDs from Netflix, I used to LOVE watching whatever Mondo Macabro would distribute.

In 2026, I can now check out the (sort of) Remake of one of those Films.  
This is...

A trio of men- now married and one with children- return to the Orphanage at which they were raised when the man running it is near death.

Their past comes in the form of stories about a malformed woman and her mysterious disappearance.
Along the way there, they hit a deer.

As weird stuff starts to happen, the Dad checks the car and sees...something not right.

What he sees at the place of the wreck, he sees something even worse.
No, I won't SPOIL what that is.
Attempts to call the Police- fail.
Cell Phones- they don't work.

And yes, we are still doing 'No signal out here' stuff in 2019.
What is the weird cord attached to her cell phone?
Everyone there- from the kids to the parents to the staff running the place- is in danger.

A strange force is making them confront their fears/phobias.
It gets bloody.
It gets cruel.

Who will live?  Who will die?

What happens when the truth comes out?

To find out, stream it now.
A slow burn Film that gets very, very dark by the end.

The key aspect of the Film is that it needs about 25 Characters to let them do all of the crazy kills/torture they need to do.

As such, the Film takes a while setting things up.

Once the Horror starts, it never really lets up.
The CGI and make-up work is good here- almost too good.

The Film looks too real and the body horror stuff is quite unsettling.  If that's your thing, then you'll love this one.

Fans of freaky, dark Horror are in for a treat- as long as they can deal with foreign Actors, locations and subtitles.

A Film that eventually gets to a scary and graphic place.  If you don't like blood and cruelty in Film, skip this one!
