The Field Guide to Evil

Synopsis

They are known as myths, lore, and folktales. Created to give logic to mankind's darkest fears, these stories laid the foundation for what we now know as the horror genre.
A feature-length anthology film with parts directed by eight of today’s most talented genre filmmakers from around the world, each contributing a short film about a myth from their country, and all stitched together to make one feature film. 'The Field Guide to Evil' is the follow-up from the creators of the cult classic 'ABCs of Death' series.
