A grad student finds an ancient, possibly cursed one-act play called "Katernica," and five theater-types go through auditions and live births which may or not actually be related plays. A talky and highly experimental work set in the theater world, it has smart moments but will lose most audiences early on; it does end on a pretty psychedelic trip, though.
British feature from director/producer/co-writer/co-editor James Edward Newton (BLACK LIZARD TALES,LIBRA) that has a literally evil play director(Tony Mardon (SPIDER-MAN: FAR FROM HOME, BEYOND FURY, THE WITCHES OF THE SANDS) who uses two sisters (Fran St. Clair (HAPPY-GRADUATION,SCARLET (2024) Annabella Rich (VIDEO SHOP TALES OF TERROR, ACTING, I CURSE THIS LAND) and a sole actress (Anna Fraser (SIX YEARS GONE,TRUTH SERUM) who all fall under his powers to perform the title play while gory killings occur throughout the theater.
