Matthan Harris caused a stir on the indie scene a few years back with The Inflicted, and now he has a supernatural horror film in pre-production entitled Baphomet. Check out the first details, some early concept art, and more right here!

Harris serves as writer, director, and producer with Incisive Pictures on Baphomet. Emmy-nominated FX artist Jeff Farley designed the film’s demon, and artist Simone Giongrandi crafted the teaser poster, both of which you’ll see below.

Casting should be firming up shortly, and we’ll keep you updated as production commences. For more info in the meantime, keep your eyes on the Baphomet Facebook page.

Synopsis:
A family in Northern California celebrates their 24-year-old daughter’s pregnancy. The celebration is interrupted when Satanic cult leader Henrik Brandr unexpectedly visits their ranch. Henrik offers to pay the family a large sum for ownership of their land, claiming it is sacred to his congregation. Jacob Richardson, the father, rejects the offer due to the priceless sentimental value of the ranch. Henrik, displeased, begins to put devastating curses on the Richardsons, trying to force them off their land – even if it means murdering them.

After suffering unexplainable tragedies, the Richardsons seek help from Marybeth, a white witch high priestess. They soon discover a terrible secret about their house, revealing why their land is sacred to the cult. They realize they must protect their house from the cult at all costs, and a violent battle between good and evil ensues.
