Hey guys! We're at the top of another week, the second and last week of San Francisco International Film Festival. But not to worry, we'll be ending this week with the first screening of a Fantastic Fest film that has peaked Overlook interest.

"After Allan Gray (Julian West) rents a room near Courtempierre in France, strange events unfold: An elderly man leaves a packet on Gray's table, and shadows that are seemingly alive lead him toward a castle. At a nearby manor, he witnesses the same man being murdered and gradually learns about the curse of the Vampyr. As Gray faces the horrors of the castle, he attempts to save the victim's daughters -- one of whom, Léone (Jan Hieronimko), has fallen ill after mysteriously being bitten."
