Brothers Luciano and Nicolás Onetti have graced the pages of Modern Horrors more than once. We first came upon them with their modern giallo, Francesca, back in 2015 and again with 2017’s What the Waters Left Behind. Both proved the duo more than capable of delivering a brutal and original horror film.

Abrakadabra  will make its world premiere at the upcoming SITGES Film Festival.

Their fourth film, Abrakadabra, closes the “giallo” trilogy that began with 2013’s Sonno Profondo, and it looks to be their most visually ambitious film to date. Be warned; though, these are films that very much feel as if they were released in the thick of the 1970s giallo boom. If you’re not into those, you probably won’t be into this either. That said, if you bleed giallo, boy are you in for a treat. Check out the debut trailer below.

Abrakadabra  will make its world premiere at the upcoming SITGES Film Festival in October where it will compete in the “Panorama Fantàstic” and “Blood Window” categories.
