Sumerika

Sumerika is a modern independent horror production rooted in the tradition of classic Italian gore cinema, combining supernatural mythology, possession horror, and zombie-driven chaos. A Sumerian curse haunts an ancient forest, where a blind criminologist and his crew must defeat demonic forces, locate missing people, and break a prophecy tied to mysterious amulets capable of possessing those who encounter them.

As the investigation unfolds, the group faces the living dead and increasingly violent supernatural manifestations, evoking the splatter aesthetics and surreal dread of films like Zombie, The Beyond, and House by the Cemetery. Director Giuseppe Andreozzi leans into a raw, independent filmmaking approach that prioritizes atmosphere, practical effects, and relentless pacing.

This Blu-ray edition includes backstage footage documenting the production process, a gag reel capturing on-set dynamics, and trailers including SRS Cinema promotional material, providing insight into the film’s creation and positioning within the label’s underground horror catalog.
