FrightFest unleashed the official poster of Abrakadabra for their popular Halloween all-day event, now at the Cineworld Leicester Square on Saturday, November 3rd. We're digging this stylish throwback to the glory days of Itallian giallo and, of course, the Onetti Bother's films totally kick ass! Check it out below!
The film Abrakadabra, directed by brothers Luciano and Nicolás Onetti, had its world premiere at SITGES Film Festival last week. Abrakadabra was one of the 7 films selected to participate in the “Upcoming Fantastic Films” section at CANNES Film Festival this year.
Abrakadabra is the fourth film by the Onetti brothers and closes the “giallo” trilogy that began with Sonno Profondo (2013) and Francesca (2015). They also directed What the Waters Left Behind (2017).
“Dante, The Great”, a prestigious magician, accidentally dies during a risky magic trick. Thirty-five years later his son Lorenzo, also a magician, presents a magic show in one of the most important theaters in the city. From then on, a series of murders will begin to take place and will attempt to incriminate him. Lorenzo must discover who and why seeks to involve him before it is too late…
