Ari Aster follows his splendid arthouse crossover horror flick Hereditary by dipping a toe into the modish folk horror genre (y’know, The Wicker Man, Kill List, etc).
The ever-excellent Florence Pugh stars alongside Jack Reynor as an American couple who head off with a brace of pals to – ulp! – a nine-day pagan festival in rural Sweden that takes place once every 90 years. Note that the Curzon is screening the director’s cut, which Ari Aster describes as a “much richer” and “more textured experience, and, perhaps most importantly, gives you the time required to fall even deeper under its harsh psychedelic spell.”
