A Creepy Curse Is Born In New BIRTHRITE Trailer
Ross Partridge's maternal horror hits theaters and VOD on August 8.
Maternal horror Birthrite, from director Ross Partridge (Stranger Things, Room 104), gets an official trailer and poster from Brainstorm Media ahead of a theatrical and VOD release on August 8.
Starring Alice Kremelberg (The Sinner, She Came from the Woods), Jennifer Lafleur (Nope), Juani Feliz (Harlem, Civil War) and Michael Chernus (Orange is the New Black, Spider-Man: Homecoming), Birthrite is the second feature from Partridge following 2015's Lamb, and is written by Patch Darragh and Erin Gann.
The plot synopsis reads as follows:
When a pregnant woman is bequeathed a home from an estranged aunt, she and her girlfriend leave the city behind to begin a new chapter. But when a karmic debt threatens the life of their unborn child, they soon discover their place in the cursed history of the town.
In a previous statement, Partridge revealed more about Birthrite's inspiration.
Birthrite is a sort of elegy about our collective consciousness. How certain rights and assumed freedoms have been ripped from us and balance on the verge of extinction. What will it take for us all to rise from this nightmare and reclaim our liberty? Our lead character, Wren, is up against such a force here: A demon's wrath. Faced with a bloodline of evil she eventually discovers that she must make the ultimate sacrifice to protect her child.
