"THE VIGIL" TEASER TRAILER

IFC Midnight invites you to celebrate the first night of Hanukkah with an early look at The Vigil. Written and Directed by Keith Thomas, The Vigil Stars Dave Davis, Menashe Lustig and Lynn Cohen.

Steeped in ancient Jewish lore and demonology, THE VIGIL is supernatural horror film set over the course of a single evening in Brooklyn's Hasidic Borough Park neighborhood. Low on funds and having recently left his insular religious community, Yakov (Dave Davis) reluctantly accepts an offer from his former rabbi and confidante (Menashe Lustig) to take on the responsibility of an overnight "shomer," fulfilling the Jewish practice of watching over the body of a deceased community member. Shortly after arriving at the recently departed's dilapidated house to sit the vigil, Yakov begins to realize that something is very, very wrong.

The Vigil Stars Dave Davis, Malky Goldman, Menashe Lustig and Lynn Cohen and opens in select theaters, on Digital Platforms and VOD on February 26th
