Blood, Cults and Killer Gators: Black Mandala Unveils Genre Slate at EFM (EXCLUSIVE)
Black Mandala brings six genre titles to Berlin's EFM, including '1978' cult horror, 'Play Dead' survival thriller and 'Lake Jesup' creature feature.
New Zealand-based sales outfit Black Mandala is bringing a sinister lineup of six genre titles to Berlin’s European Film Market(EFM), ranging from occult horror to creature features. In a different kind of psychological tension, erotic thriller “Traumnovelle” – the English-language adaptation of Arthur Schnitzler’s 1926 novella that previously inspired Stanley Kubrick’s “Eyes Wide Shut” – follows a high-society couple’s dangerous descent into an elite underground world of masked debauchery where forbidden desires come with deadly consequences. Rounding out the offerings is “Lake Jesup,” where redemption meets reptilian terror as an ex-con faces off against a monstrous escaped alligator nicknamed Bonecrusher in the deadly waters of Florida.
