Bloody Disgusting learned today that Víctor García, the Spanish horror filmmaker known for The Damned, Mirrors 2, Hellraiser: Revelations, and Return to House on Haunted Hill, has next directed Communion Girl (La Nina de La Comunion) for Warner Bros Entertainment Spain.
We also scored a first look at the film, which tells of a creepy urban legend about the ghost of a girl dressed for her first communion, ready to shed blood and take revenge on anyone unlucky enough to cross her path.
“Spain, late 1980s. Newcomer Sara (Carla Campra) tries to fit in with the other teens in this tight-knit small town in the province of Tarrgona. If only she were more like her extroverted best friend, Rebe (Aina Quiñones). They go out one night at a nightclub, on the way home, they come upon a little girl holding a doll, dressed for her first communion. And that’s when the nightmare begins.”
The film also stars Carlos Oviedo, Marc Soler, and Olimpia Roch.
Communion Girl hails from Atresmedia Cine and The Innocent writer Guillem Clua.
It’s worth noting that the company’s previous film, Echoes of Crime, was released on HBO Max here in the States following its theatrical run in Spain. It’s likely we’ll see Communion Girl on HBO Max late in 2022 or in early 2023 following its October release in Spain. More as it comes in.
