The folks at Kino-govno.com has acquired the latest teaser poster for the long awaited Russian Horror remake Viy (Вий) and it looks hauntingly good.  Here’s the official synopsis according to the Rospo film Group site:

Viy is a monster living in the mire of the swamps. It has magic stare that penetrates into the human soul and opens it for every sort of evil spirits. Nothing can save from Viy’s stare”.
(Slavonic Mythology)

Early 18th century. Cartographer Jonathan Green undertakes a scientific voyage from Europe to the East. Having passed through Transylvania and crossed the Carpathian Mountains, he finds himself in a small village lost in impassible woods. Nothing but chance and heavy fog could bring him to this cursed place. People who live here do not resemble any other people which the traveler saw before that. The villagers, having dug a deep moat to fend themselves from the rest of the world, share a naive belief that they could save themselves from evil, failing to understand that evil has made its nest in their souls and is waiting for an opportunity to gush out upon the world. Even in his worst nightmares our materialistic scientist could not suppose that he was going to meet devil’s faithful servant.

The horror film will premiere in Russia on March 12th, 2009.  You’ll find the featurette and two teaser trailer (english subtitles included) below the break.
