ART OF THE DEAD

Cinemavixion Review

Rolfe Kanefsky's 2019 horror offering, "Art of the Dead," delves into a familiar premise with a supernatural twist. The narrative centers on Dylan Wilson, who acquires a collection of unsettling paintings, only to find them imbued with a dark curse. This curse preys on the deepest desires of his family, transforming them into deadly nightmares, a concept that touches upon the seven deadly sins as detailed in external sources. The film features a cast including Richard Grieco, Jessica Morris, and Tara Reid, who navigate the escalating terror. While the film garnered 2 wins and 2 nominations, its critical reception, as indicated by an IMDb rating of 4.0/10, suggests a mixed response from audiences. "Art of the Dead" offers a descent into psychological horror, exploring the corruption that arises when personal vices are amplified by malevolent forces, making it a potentially engaging watch for fans of curse-driven supernatural thrillers.
