Terrormolins 2024, From Supernatural Suspense to Dark Comedy

Terrormolins 2024 presents unforgettable screenings, featuring cult classics and supernatural thrillers for horror fans.

So far, Terrormolins 2024 has had an impressive start since its opening on November 8 with “La Damnée” by Yohann Charrin, a horror film with supernatural overtones that kept the audience on the edge of their seats. The 43rd edition has stood out for its diverse approach, celebrating both classic horror and more experimental works. This year, the festival pays tribute to the 50th anniversary of The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, an iconic influence reflected in the retro aesthetic of its poster and the overall atmosphere of the event.

To date, some of the most notable screenings have included:

“Azrael” by E.L. Katz, a survival film featuring dark cults that blends rural horror with sinister creatures. “Exhuma” by Jang Jae-hyun, which delves into spiritual mythology through the journey of a shaman. “Rita” by Jayro Bustamante, a disturbing portrayal inspired by real events that mixes horror and social critique. “An Taibhse (The Ghost)” by John Farrely, a film spoken in Irish Gaelic that transports viewers to the 19th century for a ghost story set in a rural, oppressive environment. “Test Screening” by Clark Baker, a Lovecraftian adventure with 1980s vibes, centered around a group of teenagers trapped in a cinema where the screenings unleash unexpected horrors.

The festival has also showcased films filled with dark humor, such as “Handsome Guys”, a Korean horror comedy reminiscent of "Tucker & Dale vs. Evil" and  "Scared Shitless", which combines comedy and horror in a building where neighbors are attacked by a creature emerging from the bathrooms.

The festival has once again proven its ability to present an eclectic selection ranging from the most visceral and extreme to the most experimental and artistic, maintaining its reputation as one of the most anticipated events for horror film enthusiasts. The program will continue until November 17, concluding with the premiere of "The Rule of Jenny Pen" by James Ashcroft at the closing ceremony.
