About Evil Spirit
A junior employee of the Forest Research Institute is sent to collect mushrooms. In the forest, he meets a strange old woman, receives a silver horn and a magic club as a gift from her, and after some time ends up in prison as a counterfeiter. His connections with the mysterious old woman do not end there.
Directed by Ernest Yasan, Evil Spirit leans on a strong ensemble — Pavel Andreyev, Rimma Markova, Roman Kartsev — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about horror titles of 1989.
