A Classic Horror Story sees five carpoolers travel in a motorhome to reach a common destination. Night falls and to avoid a dead animal carcass, they crash into a tree. When they come to their senses, they find themselves in the middle of nowhere. The road they were traveling on has disappeared and there is only a dense, impenetrable forest and a wooden house in the middle of a clearing, which they discover is the home of a spine-chilling cult. Roberto De Feo and Paolo Strippoli direct A Classic Horror Story, which stars Francesco Russo, Peppino Mazzotta, Yulia Sobol, Will Merrick, Alida Baldari Calabria, Cristina Donadio, and Matilda Lutz, who starred in the excellent – and brutal – film Revenge. The script is credited to Lucio Besana, Roberto De Feo, Paolo Strippoli, Milo Tissone, and David Bellini. Having that many writers on one project gives me pause, but I’m still curious enough to give A Classic Horror Story a shot. A Classic Horror Story will be streaming on Netflix starting July 14.
