Trailer: KOKO-DI KOKO-DA to Screen at BROOKLYN HORROR FILM FESTIVAL

It’s been a month since we reported that Dark Star Pictures had snagged North American distribution rights to the Purgatorial genre flick Koko-di Koko-da. In her 4-Star review out of Fantasia, Dread’s Anya Stanley wrote “Koko-di Koko-da is refreshingly unforgiving in its unpacking of the ways that grief betrays us. Every dread-filled moment holds the audience bound and gagged, praying for the nightmare to end.”

THR called it “the bastard offspring of Groundhog Day and The Babadook”!

The next stop for Koko-di Koko-da is the Brooklyn Horror Film Festival, where it’s screening on October 20th. Check out the trailer embedded at the top of the article and the synopsis below.

Synopsis:
Elin (Katarina Jakobson) and Tobias (Leif Edlund)  are a happily married couple who regularly vacation with their young daughter. The family is on a dreamy holiday when an innocuous case of food poisoning derails their plans and forever alters the course of their lives. Three years later, the once loving couple is on the road again to go camping, looking for one last chance to go back to the way things used to be. But what once was is lost, and our characters instead find themselves having to relive the same nightmarish events, as that day and the horrors it brings repeat themselves infinitely. Together, they must overcome their trauma, reconcile with their past and fight for their lives. Over, and over, and over again.

Koko-di Koko-da comes from writer/director Johannes Nyholm, who helmed genre festival hit The Giant. Theatrical openings will include Los Angeles, New York, and more to be announced.
