Artsploitation to Unleash ‘Horsehead’ Later This Year

A little while back we got word of a bizarre little flick entitled Horsehead (Fievre). A film that has been crafted by Romain Basset, and one that will most definitely split opinion. While we don’t have a release date for you guys just yet, we do know who will be handling the distribution of the film in the States.

According to Variety, Raymond Murray’s Artsploitation Films has picked up Horsehead, and is planning to release the film later in the year onto DVD and VOD, as well as a limited theatrical release to boot.

Synopsis: Jessica has never dreamed in her life but has had regular nightmares, the meanings of which have escaped her. This peculiarity has led her to conduct studies specializing in the psychophysiology of dreams and to follow a therapy with Sean, her mentor and boyfriend, to try to understand the origins of her nightmares.

Following the death of her maternal grandmother, whom she scarcely knew, Jessica must return reluctantly to the family home. Upon her arrival, she discovers that her late grandmother is resting in the adjoining room to her own during the wake. After a rough first night made restless by a strange nightmare in which she meets her dead grandmother, Jessica suddenly becomes ill. Stuck in her bed with a high fever, the young woman decides to use her lethargic state to experience lucid dreams and thus try to take control of her nightmares. Henceforth, on the advice of Sean, Jessica needs to breathe a little bit of ether when a crisis arises to sink deeper into the other world.
