WHAT IS ASMODEUS?

"Asmodeus: "the worst of demons" (Ἀσμοδαῖος, Asmodaios) or Ashmedai (אַשְמְדּאָי‎, ʾAšməddāy), the king of the earthly spirits. Asmodeus, lust."

YEAH, OK, IT IS A DEMON. SO WHAT IS THIS PROJECT?

Asmodeus is a new film by renowned and acclaimed genre filmmaker Éric Falardeau.

It is a movie ritual, a gory self-portrait, a journey towards enlightenment, loaded with occult imagery, played by Falardeau, where a man invokes and meets three different woman-like incarnations of the lustful demon.

Inspired by the American avant-garde (Anger, Brakhage, Deren), silent cinema, transgressive art and occult authors (Crowley, Lévi, LaVey), Asmodeus is a visual trip full of practical effects and powerful affects that marks the return of Falardeau to the realm of experimental horror. And it is gorgeously shot on spectral super8mm Kodak Tri-X Black-and-White Reversal film by DOP extraordinaire Luc Desjardins.

The soundtrack will be written and performed by Falardeau's band: The SerVant. Hard and heavy, the music will be partly improvised to give a unique and evocative feeling close to a trance. The final mix will include sound effects and 1920s black magic rituals recordings.

WHAT'S NEXT?

The cast and crew are ready, special effects are being made, tests have been shot! Now, the only thing that's left is the production itself!

With your help, we'll shoot the film before Christmas, oh holy night. We'll record and mix the music. We'll submit the movie to film festivals and spread the mayhem around the world. And, finally, we'll send your rewards!
