Description

Originally titled February, Osgood Perkins’ debut film was a festival hit in 2015 and has now been picked up for wider distribution by A24 under a new title, The Blackcoat’s Daughter. The film is a bleakly desolate slow burn, harkening back to such classics as Rosemary’s Baby & Let’s Scare Jessica to Death with its brooding atmosphere and emphasis on perpetual unease and dread rather than jump scares. It’s a remarkable debut, signalling the arrival of a real talent.
