The Possession Game takes place in a snow-covered girls’ boarding school on Christmas Eve 1971. The film combines occult, slasher and horror themes to create an unpredictable and thrilling ride.
Director-producer Jenn Wexler’s second feature, The Sacrifice Game , continues her passion for creating unpredictable narratives centered around teenagers . The Possession Game, however, departs from the anarchist 80s punk rock spirit of her directorial debut The Ranger , changing tone and era to examine friendship in the face of a demonic invasion of a boarding house during the Christmas break from school. Narrative twists, characters challenging our perceptions, and classic slasher-style bloodletting create a devilishly entertaining effect
– says Meagan Navarro from “Bloody Disgusting”
The Possession Game is in cinemas from December 25
About the film: Schoolgirls Samantha and Clara are left alone for Christmas in a remote school boarding school.
