Remember that time we all got blind sided by the fact that the Martyrs remake was practically finished filming before we even knew it had begun? Well, chalk this one up as another surprise play. Short of some limited cast info and a still image, we haven’t heard all that much about production or release.

Then BAM!

Anchor Bay swoops in and claims theatrical, VOD, Blu-ray, DVD, and broadcast rights to the film. It looks like we are very very close to seeing what The Goetz Brothers have to offer this classic piece of french cinema. No concrete release date has been shared, but we’ll keep you posted. Stay tuned.

Ten-year-old Lucie flees from the isolated warehouse where she has been held prisoner. Deeply traumatized, she is plagued by awful night terrors at the orphanage that takes her in. Her only comfort comes from Anna, a girl her own age. Nearly a decade later and still haunted by demons, Lucie finally tracks down the family that tortured her. As she and Anna move closer to the agonizing truth, they find themselves trapped in a nightmare – if they cannot escape, a martyr’s fate awaits them…
