A small city in England celebrates the Harvest Competition yearly, electing a Harvest Angel who helps throw out the evil spirit, Gallowgog. However when Rebecca Holland’s (Tuppence Middleton) daughter disappears after the pageant, she finds herself in over her head, preventing towards the townspeople and supernatural forces that maintain sway over this village.
Directed by William Brent Bell (The Boy, Orphan: First Kill), Lord of Misrule appears to be an anti-populist treatise wrapped up in folkloric horror and rural terror. With outsiders looking for out the reality a few small city, and locals like Jocelyn Abney (Ralph Ineson) defending the secrets and techniques and rituals of the agricultural enclave, the movie seems paying homage to latest movies in the folk-horror tradition like The Witch and Midsommar.
Lord of Misrule will probably be obtainable in theaters and on digital December 8.
