Description
Viy
Dir. Konstantin Ershov, Georgiy Kropachyov, 1967, U.S.S.R.
Viy is generally considered the most famous Russian horror film – and the only one known to be produced during the Soviet era.
In this delightful film based on the Gogol tale of the same name, a young priest attempts to save the soul of a witch with which he has a sordid backstory. The film begins with the young monk, Khoma, wandering through the countryside on leave from his monastery. Lost in the dark, he is able to spend the night in an old woman’s barn. However, she turns out to be a witch. After an altercation between them, Khoma slays her, expecting that to be the last he sees of her.
