The Babadook and Talk to Me producers Causeway Films have birthed a new Australian horror film, The Moogai.
Dreams turn to nightmares when it hits theaters and Digital May 9 via Samuel Goldwyn Films. Watch the trailer below.
Sarah and Fergus, a hopeful young Aboriginal couple, give birth to their second baby. But what should be a joyous time of their lives becomes sinister when Sarah starts seeing a malevolent spirit she is convinced is trying to take her baby.
Fergus, who can’t see it but desperately wants to believe her, grows increasingly worried as she becomes more unbalanced. Is the child-stealing spirit real or is she in fact the biggest threat to the safety of their family?
Writer-director Jon Bell makes his feature debut on the film, based on his 2020 short of the same name.
Shari Sebbens, Meyne Wyatt, Tessa Rose, Clarence Ryan, Toby Leonard Moore, and Bella Heathcote star.
Trace Thurman wrote in his review out of Sundance that The Moogai is “yet another monster-as-a-metaphor horror drama that mostly succeeds when it acts as a drama but falls short when it shifts into genre territory.”
