From Turkish director Orçun Behram (The Antenna), upcoming horror movie The Funeral has shared its first look (above) with Deadline, and this one sounds like quite a trip.
Deadline details this morning, “The Funeral stars popular Turkish actor Ahmet Rifat Sungar (The Wild Pear Tree, Actress) as a solitary hearse driver who is driving the body of a young murder victim back to her family in the East of the country.
“One night, he opens the back doors of the hearse to find the dead girl making strange grunting noises. He is immediately captivated by her beauty and falls in love.
“Together, they set off on a mission to avenge her death, leaving a trail of corpses in their wake. Rising young actress Cansu Türedi plays the dead girl.”
The Funeral is set to premiere at this year’s upcoming Lisbon International Horror Film Festival (aka MotelX), which runs from September 12 – September 18, 2023.
XYZ is repping North America while Reel Suspects will handle world sales.
