People always want to do something special for their wedding day, but perhaps this couple took a decision that they are going to regret for the rest of their lives.
In The Castle (2022), on their wedding day, Michael and Catherine break down in the middle of nowhere. They walk for several kilometers when they discover an old castle. Against her better judgment, Catherine is convinced by Michael to spend the night. Once she enters the castle she feels like something is watching her. What she discovers in the castle will change her life forever. Will she leave this place alive?
This is the debut feature film of writer, producer, composer, and director Arish Sirkissoon, who was also co-writer and producer of the horror film Tokoloshe: An African Curse (2020).
The main cast for The Castle (2022) is formed by Rio Notra, Tevin Kunene, Khushi Parekh, Shivaan Moodley, Shezi Sibongiseni, Sanjay Laljith, and Raj Singh.
Arish Sirkissoon says about his film “It’s always been important to me to write deep psychological thrillers that are borderline horror. In my personal view, there is nothing better than a great feature with a worthy twist. I wrote this film with many ideas in mind and it came together beautifully in one swift stroke. I know audiences are going to appreciate the attention to detail I have put into this film both on paper and on the screen. This is my directorial debut so I always wanted something special and I think I have achieved this in many forms. The movie itself is a play on frameworks that lead to an intriguing crescendo that leaves you wanting more”.
The Castle (2022) had a South African theatrical release on May 13, 2022. Now, it is scheduled for a digital worldwide release on November 11, 2022, by Terror Films.
