After World Premiering at last year’s Toronto International Film Festival, Shudder has acquired the South African supernatural horror Good Madam (Mlungu Wam) with plans to release later this year, reports Deadline.
Meagan Navarro was mixed on the film, writing in her review that it’s “a slow build of psychological and supernatural horror that sometimes confuses but always engages.” She adds: “…even at its messiest, Good Madam excels at character work and building psychological horror around it.”
“Good Madam follows Tsidi, a single mother, who is forced to move in with her estranged mother Mavis, a live-in domestic worker caring obsessively for her catatonic white ‘Madam’ in an affluent Cape Town suburb. As Tsidi tries to heal her family however, a sinister specter begins to stir.”
Written and directed by Jenna Cato Bass and co-written by Babalwa Baartman, the film stars Chumisa Cosa, Nosipho Mtebe, Kamvalethu Jonas Raziya, Sanda Shandu, Khanyiso Kenqa, Sizwe Ginger Lubengu, Siya Sikawuti, Peggy Tunyiswa and Chris Gxalaba.
Trailer closer to release.
