‘The Dæmon' will receive its World Premiere at London's Pigeon Shrine FrightFest in August.
Directed by Matt Devino and David Michael Yohe, the Lovecraftian slow burn follows a family attempting to reconcile past traumas, only to face demons infinitely more sinister than their own. Horror fans can see the film at FrightFest on Friday 23rd August 2024 and watch the trailer below:
Haunted by the aftermath of his father's suicide, Tom abandons his wife and seeks refuge at the lakeside cottage where his father met his tragic end. There, his tormented memories from childhood resurface, all intricately connected to an ancient, mystifying force lurking beneath the lake's depths, driving Tom inexorably towards madness. As Tom's communication dwindles into eerie silence, Kathy, desperate to rescue her husband, enlists the help of her brother Mark, a struggling entrepreneur, and Mark's compassionate yet inexperienced wife, Jess, a trauma and grief counselor. Unaware of the sinister malevolence seeping from the lake, Tom becomes a willing vessel for the same evil that claimed his parents and now threatens all who dare draw near.
Ahead of the premiere, Yohe and Devino shared their excitement on releasing their passion project, “‘The Dæmon' is a reflection of our own fears, an exploration of the profound connection between past and present, and the acknowledgment that in the face of cosmic forces hope may not be enough to save us.We believe that the film will resonate with viewers on a visceral level, drawing them into a world where the line between reality and the supernatural is blurred, and where the strength of the human spirit is put to the ultimate test.”
‘The Dæmon' will receive its World Premiere at Pigeon Shrine FrightFest on Friday 23rd August 2024 at 11:30am.
