Yana Enzhaeva and Konstantin Beloshapka in Dark Spell (2021)
Zhenya, a young wife and mother, is heartbroken after her husband leaves her. Desperate, she tampers with the forces of reality by employing sinister magic - in the form of a spell called "Black Wedding" - to bring him back into her arms. Sure enough, her husband returns to her... but his renewed love for Zhenya has become twisted into something far more obsessive and frightening. Now Zhenya has no other choice but to find a way to reverse an irreversible spell, but she soon learns that not even death will part those who have been joined by the Black Wedding.

    Dark Fate

    Stories about summoning a demon never end well. Including this movie. Spoiler alert : the ending doesn't favor the protagonist. One thing I don't like about the protagonist is that she's a stereotypical weak minded woman who's willing to do anything or sacrifice anything to conform to other people's will. In this case, her selfish desire to own her crappy boyfriend. So if you don't like this kind of person, don't watch this movie. I did because the horror side was just good to watch. The jump scares were reasonable, not cheap ones. Solid 7 from me. I don't know why other people rated it so poorly. Maybe because it's from Russia. I mean, you can hate the country, but why condemn a perfectly good movie just for that? I'm not biased towards any political agenda. When I see something good, I give good rating. This movie does not deserve rating under 5 stars. The acting was decent, the plot was solid (even though it's predictable), and although there wasn't any plot twists, the story is still interesting enough to follow through.
