The Curse is Abel Danan’s first feature film. He first caught the attention of vampire enthusiasts with his short film CANINES, co-written with Emma Lacoste, who also collaborated with him on the screenplay for THE DAMNED. The result of this new partnership is an ingenious and visually striking prototype. With a plot full of twists and turns, orchestrated to thrill and startle through lighting effects, set design, and Lina El Arabi’s embodied performance, THE DAMNED offers a unique universe of mesmerizing scenes and a brilliant horror aesthetic. Abel Danan revisits the genre with sharp insight and stands out as one of the young filmmakers to watch.
