One of the films Raven Banner Entertainment presented to potential distributors at the European Film Market earlier this year was SKULL: THE MASK, a Brazilian production written and directed by Armando Fonseca and Kapel Furman. There's no word on what deals were made at the Market, but a trailer for the film has been released online and is embedded above.
If the title SKULL: THE MASK seems odd, it's because it was shortened from SKULL: THE MASK OF ANHANGÁ. The film has the following synopsis:
Missing for decades, a mystical artifact rises again in the city of São Paulo. incarnating a primordial being and starting a series of bloody crimes. Officer Beatriz Obdias is in charge of the investigations, while Manco Ramirez, heir of the artifact's guardian, hunts the destructive creature.
Natallia Rodrigues, Wilton Andrade, Rurik Jr., Ivo Muller, Ricardo Gelli, Guta Ruiz, and Gilda Nomacce star.
SKULL: THE MASK immediately has my full attention just because it's a Brazilian horror movie, and I'm always interested in checking out Brazilian horror. (I even got to spend some time on the set of the Brazilian horror movie O RASTRO, a.k.a. THE TRACE WE LEAVE BEHIND, a few years ago.) Add in the fact that SKULL has been described as an action-packed supernatural slasher, and it's guaranteed that I'll be watching this movie as soon as possible. Hopefully it will be possible very soon.
