The director of the acclaimed supernatural shocker WE ARE STILL HERE will be on hand when his brutal new historical thriller MOHAWK gets its New York City debut next month, and a member of the RUE MORGUE team will be there as well.
The art and brilliance of Ted Geoghegan’s poignant, thought-provoking MOHAWK is to realign our perspective on a very specific moment in history—namely, the complex interplay of global, native and American interests during the War of 1812 that wreaked largely forgotten havoc on very real individual lives—from a reductive statistical blip on the arc of history to a visceral, affecting human tragedy.
After chilling audiences with his much-praised haunted-house film WE ARE STILL HERE, filmmaker Ted Geoghegan goes for a combination of action, horror and historical drama that is quite relevant to our current times in MOHAWK. On the eve of its world premiere at Montreal’s Fantasia International Film Festival tomorrow, July 15, RUE MORGUE has some exclusive words with Geoghegan about the movie.
