Viy (2009) Remake
Russian remake of the classic horror film from 1967 based on the novel by Nickolai Gogol.
A young priest is ordered to preside over the wake of witch in a small old wooden church of a remote village.
This means spending three nights alone with the corpse with only his faith to protect him.
Quick question: has the big budget remake of Russian horror picture Viy been getting progressively larger and more complicated as interest rises throughout the production or is it just that the producers have bitten off way more than they can chew? We first wrote about this film all the way back in November of 2005 - at which point a 2006 release was planned - and here we are in late 2007 with no release in sight. In fact the good folks over at 24fps have spotted a Russian news report saying that the film is now targeting a February 2009 release citing complicated animal and effects shots still to be filmed.
Here is the synopsis, all be it a bit confusing one.
Time went by. The Cossack chief – the young lady’s father – lost his mind: to prevent the evil spirits from entering his estate, he ordered a deep moat dug and a tall wall constructed around the hamlet and the adjacent lands.
Now one could only enter the hamlet via a retractable bridge, which was guarded day and night by men, loyal to the Cossack chief.
Few were allowed inside. All kinds of riffraff hung around the bridge by the dozen: God’s fools, the homeless and the cripples. Those allowed to cross the bridge were thoroughly searched. The rumors had it the Cossack chief was afraid of Viy’s return. One day a scientist arrived at the hamlet. From then on mysterious murders started occurring at the estate. Inhabitants, known until then as decent people, suddenly became aggressive and cruel.
The scientist begins an investigation. Soon he learns that Viy indeed exists. Seminarian Brut’s death and all the developments in the recent days are not coincidental.
Gradually he comes to unraveling the Viy mystery.
It’s not Viy himself who is dangerous, but his gaze.
Viy is rather harmless. However, when any mortal looks into Viy’s eyes, the demons of all the sins, fears, passions and horrors, laying dormant in the dark soul of the beholder, attack from within.
But a person, whose nature is pure, can look into Viy’s eyes without fear. The truth is inside you."
Trailer mi izgleda odlično

Procitala sam negdje na netu, ne mogu se sjetiti gdje, da je film trebao izaci jos prije par godina (cca 2007), ali nisu bili zadovoljni snimljenim, pa su doradili scenariji, specijalne efekte...nesto na tu foru.teurastaja wrote:pise na netu kako zele izdati film tokom 2009 jer je 200-ta obljetnica rođenja autora knjige, po kojoj je rađen film (Gogolj).
Svidja mi se ovo s Gogoljem, on je faca!

neke stvari mozda malo ispadaju previse forsiramo, ali vecina je dosta dobra... jedino sto cisto sumnjam da ce bit pogoden duh originala...
