Second Run will release Robert Sigl’s atmospheric Gothic chiller, LAURIN, on Region Free Blu-ray on 3 April 2023, presented complete and uncut from a new HD transfer approved by the director.
In a 19th century German village, a young girl experiences fearsome night-time visions as a deranged child-killer stalks the streets…
Sigl’s richly atmospheric and gloriously morbid film is a dark, menacing coming-of-age tale with wonderful set and costume design, and superb cinematography by Nyika Jancsó.
