Dark Sky Films has announced a January 8th theatrical and VOD release date for CHERRY TREE, the witchy new film from WAKE WOOD director David Keating. The film stars HELLBOY II‘s Anna Walton, Naomi Battrick, Sam Hazeldine and Patrick Gibson.
Here’s the (slightly spoilery) synopsis:
Faith’s world is turned upside down after she finds out that her beloved father is dying. When the mysteriously alluring Sissy Young becomes her new hockey coach, Faith has no idea that Sissy is the head of a witches’ coven that has resided in her home town of Orchard for centuries. Using the fruit of an ancient cherry tree in a bloody ritual, the witches can bring the dead and dying back to life, and when Sissy offers to cure Faith’s father, she lures the young woman into a dangerous deal that will leave her fighting for her life.
Hopefully a trailer for CHERRY TREE scurries our way soon.
