‘The Accursed’ Exclusive Interview: Mena Suvari Shares That She’s Never Played A Role Like This

The Accursed

In his 2021 film Willy’s Wonderland, Kevin Lewis unleashed animatronic mayhem with Nicolas Cage at the helm. But, Lewis isn’t all about over-the-top action horror. And he wants to prove that with his new film, The Accursed.

Read the full synopsis for the film below:

Elly (Sarah Grey) is asked by a family friend (Mena Suvari) to spend a few days looking after an elderly woman (Meg Foster) living in a remote cabin. She readily agrees, thinking a short trip to the woods will be a nice escape. The cabin turns out to be anything but relaxing as Elly begins hallucinating in ways that blur reality with her dreams. As the visions take over, Elly realizes that she was lured there by a demonic presence hiding inside of the woman just waiting to break free.

Dread Central spoke with Lewis along with composer Emoi and stars Sarah Grey and Mena Suvari about tackling disturbing subject matter, getting in the proper headspace for The Accursed, and more.
