Produced by Blumhouse and distributed in Italy by Universal Pictures from 21 May, the film tells the story of Bear, a music shop assistant who, after breaking the mysterious wish stick to win the heart of the girl he loves, gets exactly what he asked for but soon discovers that some wishes come at a sinister and dangerous price. <\/p>\n\n<p>There is also great anticipation for the national premiere of Ti uccideranno (They Will Kill You), directed by Kirill Sokolov and starring Zazie Beetz, Myha\u2019La, Paterson Joseph, Tom Felton, Heather Graham and Patricia Arquette. The film brings to the big screen a high-octane, blood-soaked horror-action-comedy in which a young woman must survive the night at the Virgil \u2013 the mysterious, dark lair of a demonic cult \u2013 before being sacrificed. The result is a daring, unbridled cinematic clash, featuring brutal killings and pitch-black humour.

Pictures.   <\/p>\n\n<p>Enriching the Notti Horror programme is a tribute dedicated to Mario and Lamberto Bava, father and son who have left their mark on the history of Italian horror cinema: Demoni (Sunday 22 March at 21:00), Sei donne per l\u2019assassino (Wednesday 25 March at 21:00), a film that inspired filmmakers such as Martin Scorsese, Dario Argento and Quentin Tarantino, and the masterpiece Operazione paura (Friday 27 March at 21:00), followed by Toby Dammit, an episode directed by Federico Fellini for the anthology film Three Steps in Delirium. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>BIF&amp;ST 2026 shines the spotlight on a major new feature: NOTTI HORROR, a new section dedicated to the best of horror cinema, featuring tributes to the great masters and previews of the most eagerly awaited films of 2026, screening at the Multicinema Galleria in Bari.
