Still from Dancing Village: The Curse Begins

Directed by Kimo Stamboel, This gripping horror thriller will be released in select theaters in the US on Friday, April 26.

This comes to us from Lionsgate. Here’s what you need to know about the story: a shaman instructs Mila to return a mystical bracelet, the Kawaturih, to the “Dancing Village,” a remote site on the easternmost tip of Java Island. Joined by her cousin, Yuda, and his friends Jito and Arya, Mila arrives on the island only to discover that the village elder has passed away, and that the new guardian, Mbah Buyut, isn’t present. Various strange and eerie events occur while awaiting Mbah Buyut’s return, including Mila being visited by Badarawuhi, a mysterious, mythical being who rules the village. When she decides to return the Kawaturih without the help of Mgah Buyut, Mila threatens the village’s safety, and she must join a ritual to select the new “Dawuh,” a cursed soul forced to dance for the rest of her life.

We hope to have more on this one for you soon. For now, check out the trailer and follow us here for more movie news and reviews.
