Director Marco Rosson states: "We are very pleased to have found a serious distribution that allows us to release our little independent film also in the U.S. EVIL RIVER was shot in just nine days with a very limited budget.

Synopsis:

"Emma is a university professor visiting the small northern Italian town of Voghera, who wants to carry out a study on the bizarre case of the so-called Shanda’s river.

The river was renamed after the brutal murder of a young female peasant Shanda, accused and executed for being a witch in the early 19th century. A local girl Giulia has been organizing for several years a river sightseeing tour narrating the story of the witch Shanda. Emma wants to take part in the tour but gets caught up in a curse that forces her to relentlessly repeat that same day. She’ll keep waking up in her hotel room at 4 am and constantly getting killed by two cult members (enigmatic individuals wearing a mask). Thanks to another member of the tour, Daniel Roth, Emma will unveil the secret of this curse and will resiliently try, by all means, to get out of the loop."



The film will soon be released in the United States and Canada on DVD and VOD and it will be distributed by the Wild Eye Releasing.
