Actress Romola Garai makes her directorial debut with
Amulet, which just received its UK premiere at Frightfest Halloween last
weekend.
The film stars Alec Secareanu as an immigrant in London, haunted by his past in a
foreign conflict. When he takes a room in a crumbling house, he falls for
the young woman (Carla Juri) that lives there but begins to suspect
they're sharing the home with a supernatural presence.
Amulet is in UK cinemas from January 28th.
Check out the trailer and poster below.
The official synopsis reads:
AMULET explores the story of Tomaz (Alec Secareanu: Gods own Country, Cannibal), an ex-soldier from an unnamed foreign conflict, living in strained circumstances in London. Haunted by his past, he is offered a place to stay in a decaying, claustrophobic house, inhabited by an enigmatic young woman (Carla Juri: Blade Runner: 2049, Wetlands) and her dying mother. As he starts to fall for his new companion, Tomaz cannot ignore his suspicion that something insidious might also be living alongside them.
