Supernatural folk horror THE MORRIGAN starring Saffron Burrows, Toby Stephens and James Cosmo released 29th June

THE MORRIGAN, the supernatural horror-thriller about the vengeful spirit of a shapeshifting mythical queen released from an ancient tomb, is unleashed on digital platforms in the UK and Ireland on 29th June from Thunderbird Releasing

THE MORRIGAN, which premiered at last year’s Galway Film Festival, is written and directed by Colum Eastwood – named as one of Screen International UK’s Star of Tomorrow in 2020. The film’s striking pre-credit sequence, set in ancient Pagan Ireland, sets the tone for the fiery, bloody and chilling mayhem to follow. With a superb cast including Saffron Burrows (Baghead, Deep Blue Sea) as the archaeologist who breaks the seal on an ancient tomb, and unleashes something that should have stayed buried, Toby Stephens (Severance), James Cosmo (The Hole In The Ground, Braveheart), Emily Flain (Marcella), Art Parkinson (Game of Thrones) and Antonia Campbell-Hughes (Bright Star), THE MORRIGAN features a nerve-jangling score by James Everett (Bad Day For The Cut)

Boasting superbly atmospheric cinematography shot on location in Northern Ireland and steeped in Celtic folklore, this is essential viewing for fans of supernatural horror. If you enjoyed Lee Cronin’s The Mummy, get ready for Colum Eastwood’s THE MORRIGAN!

THE MORRIGAN is available on Digital from 29th June in UK and Ireland
