Says Festival Director MILES FLANAGAN, “I don’t want to say too much because this horror thriller (with a splash of comedy) is about discovery and features some of the most amazing practical effects we’ve ever seen. We’re so happy to be able to show this on the big screen.”
Continues FLANAGAN, “AFFLICTED is one of the most suspenseful and original horror debuts we’ve seen in a long time. You think you’re going on one journey, then holy crap it takes you somewhere totally different. It’s a real audience pleaser.”
