THE ANCESTRAL – SCREAMBOX Brings Haunting Twists and Turns With Vietnamese Box Office Hit!
25Cinedigm and Bloody Disgusting have acquired all North American rights to The Ancestral, the disturbing new horror film from renowned director Le-Van Kiet (The Requin). The Ancestral will be a SCREAMBOX Original.
The Ancestral released theatrically in Vietnam last year. It held the top spot for two consecutive weekends, making it the second consecutive success for the visionary director Kiet. His bold style first caught the eye of the international community after his film Furie became Vietnam’s highest-grossing film of all time; the film went on to become the country’s submission to the Academy Awards for Best International Feature.
In The Ancestral…
“After suffering a family tragedy, a widower moves his two daughters to a centuries-old ancestral home. When both daughters fall prey to sleep paralysis and night terrors, their father seeks the help of a local psychologist. These chilling secrets and frightening visions eventually prove that not everything is what it seems in the old family house.”
The Ancestral is also written by Kiet with contributions from Vo Nguyen Dan. The film stars Lam Thanh My (Hollow), Quang Tuan (Glorious Ashes) & Mai Cát Vi (The Third Wife).
