Feu-Follet. In French folklore it is a soul send back from the dead to do God's penance but will often attack people for vengeance. Deemed mostly harmless, the feu-follet sometimes suck the blood of children. Cheery stuff. There are no children in Mickael Abbate's upcoming short film by the same name but there is a couple meeting clandestinely in a graveyard at night. The young woman sees such a spirit and gets a bit nervy. Their older boyfriend bolsters up on bravado and tries to keep the good times going. The short is presently in post but Mickael has started to present their short to festival programmers attending Marche du Film. We have a trio of stills to share with you. Check them...

Friends of ours, Mickael Abbate and Domiziano Cristopharo, along with Tiziano Martella, will have their 2014 anthology, Phnatasmagoria, released on Blu-ray by Goredrome in the UK.

The makers of Phantasmagoria have sent along this beautiful one-sheet for their film. The art hails from the Italian poster group Malleus. In this French/Italian anthology production, three directors - Mickael Abbate, Domiziano Cristopharo and Tiziano Martella - offer us their original visions of fear in three gripping films: Diabolique, Il serpente dalla lingua acciaio and My Gift to You. Cristina Puccinelli (L’Ultimo Weekend), Venantino Venantini (City of the Living Dead), Sophie Pâris and newcomer Maya Dolan recently joined the cast. When we last reported on the film, it was described as "a vibrating tribute to William Castle’s cinema, but also an introduction to [three] original visions of fear in three gripping films that encompass the breadth of the genre."
