October is the perfect time for a first look at C. May Borgstrom’s spooky and atmospheric thriller, Spirit in the Blood.
Borgstrom’s debut feature, which also saw her write the screenplay, follows a group of misfit teenage girls who take up the fight against the evil spirits they believe killed a young girl in their secluded religious mountain community. By embracing their own dark nature, they unleash something that may not be so quickly or easily contained.
The German-Canadian co-production features a cast of newcomers, including Summer H. Howell and Sarah-Maxine Racicot, alongside veteran stalwart actors Michael Wittenborn and Greg Bryk.
