The 2023 French film is adapted from Aleksey Konstantinovich Tolstoy’s 1839 novella The Family of the Vourdalak, which predates Bram Stoker’s Dracula by over half a century.

The film is presented presented with 5.1 surround stereo sound in French with English subtitles.

When the Marquis d’Urfé, a noble emissary of the King of France, is attacked and abandoned in the remote countryside, he finds refuge at an eerie, isolated manor. The resident family, reluctant to take him in, exhibits strange behavior as they await the imminent return of their father, Gorcha.

But what begins simply as strange quickly devolves into a full-fledged nightmare when Gorcha returns, seemingly no longer himself.

Kacey Mottet Klein, Ariane Labed, Grégoire Colin, Vassili Schneider, Claire Duburcq, and Gabriel Pavie star, with Adrien Beau as the voice of Gorcha.
