Moogai movie set for release

“You can’t let the Moogai in…” Samuel Goldwyn Films has unveiled the official trailer for the indie horror film from Australia titled The Moogai, which originally premiered in the Midnight section during the 2024 Sundance Film Festival last year.

It’s opening in cdninams starting next month if anyone is curious to check out this unique supernatural horror story about an Aboriginal demon spirit.

The horror is a feature adaptation of Oz filmmaker Jon Bell’s own short film of the same name.

A young Aboriginal couple bring home their second baby. What should be a joyous time takes a sinister turn at home, as the baby’s mother starts seeing a malevolent spirit she is convinced is trying to take her baby.

But no one believes her. Starring Shari Sebbens, Meyne Wyatt, Tessa Rose, Clarence Ryan, with Toby Leonard Moore and Bella Heathcote.
