A tight, atmospheric occult thriller, Pyewacket (Blu‑ray) delivers a slow‑burn descent into paranoia as a grieving teen summons something she can’t control. The Blu‑ray release from Shout! Studios includes the film in 1080p with English audio and an 88‑minute runtime.
🎬 Pyewacket (Blu‑ray) — Description
When teenager Leah Reyes (Nicole Muñoz) becomes overwhelmed by grief and anger after her father’s death, her relationship with her mother (Laurie Holden, The Walking Dead) fractures. In a moment of desperation, Leah performs an occult ritual to summon the entity Pyewacket—a malevolent force from witchcraft lore—to kill her mother.
What begins as an impulsive act quickly spirals into terror as Leah realizes the ritual worked… and the presence she unleashed is real. The film leans heavily into psychological dread, isolation, and the fear of not knowing whether the threat is supernatural or born from grief‑warped perception.
Director Adam MacDonald crafts a grounded, character‑driven horror story that avoids jump scares in favor of creeping tension, eerie atmosphere, and a devastating emotional payoff.
