Just launched! The US poster of Lionsgate’s Sam Raimi produced horror The Possession. Which is based on a true story and out later this year in the UK…

“The Possession is the terrifying story of how one family must unite in order to survive the wrath of an unspeakable evil.

But as Em’s behavior becomes increasingly erratic, the couple fears the presence of a malevolent force in their midst, only to discover that the box was built to contain a dibbuk, a dislocated spirit that inhabits and ultimately devours its human host.”
