Prepare for a blood-soaked descent into the dark heart of the Louisiana bayou. The highly anticipated supernatural horror-comedy The Hoodoos is coming to home video this summer. Blending the high-stakes tension of a classic heist movie with aggressive Vodoun terror, the film will be available starting July 1st on Amazon, Google TV and Vudu.
This gripping supernatural nightmare is brought to life by director Jonathan Walter and writer Sean-Michael Argo. The film features a dynamic ensemble cast anchored by stars Ashton Leigh, B. Dave Walters, and Celeste Blandon, who bring the doomed heist crew and eccentric voodoo hustler to vivid, terrifying life.
A crime lord known only as the Captain has a job for the best heist crew in Louisiana: break into the long-abandoned Fontenot plantation deep in the Teche bayou and walk out with five thousand Confederate gold coins. The catch is they’ll need a sorcerer to get past the spells protecting the treasure, and it is a job no self-respecting Vodoun practitioner would ever take. Hatch is a low-rent voodoo influencer running a one-man hustle out of a beat-up camper van and is just the sort of loser they need. The heist crew, with Hatch dragged along at gunpoint, hit the plantation with speed and skill. What they find waiting for them is more than a chest of gold. Seven hand-made dolls filled with dark power wake up thirsty for blood, one for each of the crew.
Who will survive the night?
The Hoodoos delivers a fresh, terrifying twist on the crime genre by trading standard heist complications for ancient, vengeful magic. Filmed on location to capture the suffocating atmosphere of the deep Southern wetlands, the movie promises relentless pacing, shocking practical effects, and a haunting exploration of greed and folklore.
Coming July 1st on Amazon, Google TV, and Vudu.
Novel available for pre-order July 1st.
