Free as Dead

2016 · 21 min · Horror

The story concerns a man bound to death and a young girl, following a path of ritualistic transfiguration to ultimately become completely free as dead. A frightening tale of evil excess, demented sorcery and lurid ritual. An original experimental short horror film presenting a voyage into the darkest and most psychedelic nether regions of the subconscious.
