Abstract:
"We have more ghosts than live people," murmurs the pale, haunted mistress of the mansion of Marsh Firs (Elena Dimitrova) to a scholar of ancient folklore (Boris Plotnikov) who has arrived at her castle to research the bloody legend of King Stakh, a murdered 15th century nobleman whose spirit supposedly thunders through the local woodlands. A Long-lost Belarusian gem, THE SAVAGE HUNT OF KING STAKH is part folk horror, part supernatural mystery, and is a melancholic, chilling mixture of Terry Gilliam, Italian gothic horror, 1960s Hammer Films and The Wicker Man - and a major rediscovery for genre fans.
