Azrael Synopsis
In a world in which no one speaks, a mysterious, devout community hunts down a young woman named Azrael (Samara Weaving) who has escaped their imprisonment. Recaptured by its ruthless leaders, she is to be sacrificed to pacify an evil that resides deep within the surrounding wilderness – but Azrael will stop at nothing to ensure her own freedom and survival. From the seeds of this gritty, relentless parable of sacrifice and salvation, comes an immersive, real-time, action horror tale from the visionary minds of Simon Barrett and E.L. Katz.

Azrael got so much buzz that Shudder is helping with the release as well. That is a stamp of approval that any indie horror film would die for. The premise here is so unique that it sets itself apart from most of the other fall offerings as well, so there is breakout potential as well. The lesson here is to never try to sacrifice Samara Weaving; chances are that it will not end well for you.
Azrael will open in select theaters on September 27th. If it is playing near you, you should definitely seek it out.
