More DescriptionIt is Christmas time and Dr Novak's hospital ward is filling with some very unusual cases. As his patients tell their various horrific stories, the doctor decides to investigate further - a decision he could live to regret.
Solstice harks back to the golden years of British horror films, in particular, the portmanteau films produced by Amicus in the 1970s. Featuring a dangerous tree spirit, magic-mushroom-induced visions of Santa Claus and his Christmas elves, a vegan farmer's son who is loathe to let his father kill his favourite turkey and a full-blown solstice Black Magic ritual, Solstice delivers stories of folk horror that surprise, delight and frighten in equal measure.
