Black Sunday

In the mist‑shrouded valleys of 19th‑century Moldavia, ancient legends linger like the damp stone of forgotten crypts, and the land itself feels charged with an uneasy, almost palpable dread. The remote countryside, with its crumbling fortresses and superstitious villages, provides a perfect backdrop for a tale where history and horror intertwine, and where every rustle of leaves seems to whisper of sins long buried.

From the depths of that dark past rises the enigmatic Asa Vajda, an ancient witch condemned centuries ago, together with her devoted servant Igor Jauvitch. Their eerie resurrection sets a chilling tone, as they pursue a terrifying purpose: to claim the body of a living woman who bears the exact likeness of the long‑dead sorceress. Their presence brings an otherworldly menace that hangs over the landscape like a looming storm, promising secrets that could freeze the heart of any onlooker.

Caught in this supernatural maelstrom is Katia, a striking descendant whose uncanny resemblance to the witch makes her the focal point of the looming threat. Alongside her stands Dr. Choma Kruvajan, a determined physician whose scientific mind collides with forces beyond comprehension. Together with Katia’s close‑knit family, they form a fragile alliance that must confront the encroaching darkness while wrestling with legacy, identity, and the fear of an unseen evil.

The film balances its gothic atmosphere with a palpable sense of urgency, weaving together dread, intrigue, and an inescapable feeling that something ancient is clawing its way back into the world. As the characters navigate a realm where superstition meets empirical knowledge, they are drawn toward a secret so terrifying that it threatens to paralyze anyone who glimpses it, setting the stage for a confrontation that hovers between the rational and the supernatural.
