The Savage Hunt of King StakhThe Savage Hunt of King Stakh

"We have more ghosts than live people," murmurs the pale, haunted mistress of the mansion of Marsh Firs (Elena Dimitrova) to a scholar of ancient folklore (Boris Plotnikov) who has arrived at her castle to research the bloody legend of King Stakh, a murdered 15th century nobleman whose spirit supposedly thunders through the local woodlands. A Long-lost Belarusian gem, THE SAVAGE HUNT OF KING STAKH is part folk horror, part supernatural mystery, and is a melancholic, chilling mixture of Terry Gilliam, Italian gothic horror, 1960s Hammer Films and The Wicker Man - and a major rediscovery for genre fans.
