Vampires, Zombies, and other creatures of the night have had their time to shine in Hollywood. Werewolves really haven’t had a great deal with movies lately. However, that’s not stopping filmmakers from making new horror flicks based on the lycanthrope mythology. The Cursed is one of those movies trying to make werewolves cool again. It’s written and directed by Sean Ellis. It stars Boyd Holbrook, Kelly Reilly, and Alistair Petrie.
The film’s plot goes something like this:
In the late 1800s, a once-peaceful remote country village is under attack—but by who or what, no one knows. Villagers spread rumors of a cursed land, supernatural forces, and even demonic creatures, as the disappearances and killings continue. Pathologist John McBride arrives to investigate the danger, only to discover something much deeper and more sinister than he ever could have imagined.
The Cursed releases in theaters on February 18th, 2022.
