The Well (2023), the new horror film by Federico Zampaglione (Shadow, Tulpa) will arrive in Italian theaters on July 18 distributed by Iperuranio Film, in collaboration with CG Entertainment.
Starring Lauren LaVera (Terrifier 2), star of the blockbuster horror slasher film Terrifier 2 (2022) by Damien Leone, The Well has already been sold in more than 80 countries around the world, including the United States.
In The Well, Lauren LaVera is Lisa Gray, a budding art restorer and daughter of art, who travels to a small Italian village to work on a medieval painting. The artist's life, however, will be in danger because of an evil curse and a monster born of myth and brutal pain imprisoned in a well.

The special effects are by Carlo Diamantini (The Tale of Tales).
Shot in locations around Rome, from Saracinesco, to Palazzo Cenci Bolognetti in Vicovaro, to Theodoli Castle in Sambuci, The Well has been presented at some of the world's best festivals (Sitges, Fantasporto, Screamfest...), garnering critical and audience acclaim everywhere.
