The Savage Hunt Of King Stakh
Deaf Crocodile
•
2h 6m
Directed by Valeri Rubinchik • Drama • With Elena Dimitrova, Boris Plotnikov • 1980 • 127 minutes
Part folk horror, part supernatural mystery, the long-unseen THE SAVAGE HUNT OF KING STAKH is a melancholy, chilling mixture of Terry Gilliam, Italian Gothic Horror, 1960s Hammer Films and THE WICKER MAN - and a major rediscovery for genre fans. Newly restored Director's Cut!
“The simultaneously antic and macabre effect will please anyone with a taste for foreign fairy tales and cinematic surrealism.” —Dennis Harvey, 48 Hills
