*full disclosure: an online screener of this film was provided by Midnight Releasing.
Director/writer: Jason Stoddard.
Cast: Leslie Easterbrook, Kane Hodder and J.D. Hart.
Hell hath no fury than a woman scorned but in the case of The Afflicted, Hell should be afraid ... very afraid of Maggie (Leslie Easterbrook). She is a loving wife one day and a paranoid bi-polar Bible thumping she-devil the other.
That might be the trauma that affects her, and as she unleashes her seething anger, people should be running away. Even Hank (Kane Hodder, Friday the 13th series) proves he's no Jason against Maggie. After a seemingly nice birthday for daughter, Carla (Katie Holland), the happiness has gone south. He sees something wrong with his wife, and needs time to figure it out. Perhaps the hug she gave the pastor John (J.D. Hart), better known as the Cowboy Profit, a tele-evangelist, was more than he could handle.

The Spooky Movie International Horror Film Festival is, once again, set to push the boundaries of modern horror with their sixth annual edition that will run for four terrifying nights on Oct. 13-16 at the Artisphere theater in Washington, D.C.
For the opening night event on Oct. 13, Spooky Movie proves its international flair with the over-the-top Japanese zombie gorefest and action flick Helldriver, directed by Yoshihiro Nishimura, which will have two screenings, one for the early birds at 7:00 p.m. and one for the late-night crowd at 10:00 p.m.
The closing night film on the 16th is also an international affair: Joe Bauer’s The Killage, an Australian horror comedy that sends up the teen camp counselors slasher genre. Plus, there will be several Aussie short films accompanying this final feature.
Smooshed in between these two events are some of the most original and provocative terror flicks around,...
