TEHRAN- Iranian short movie “The Creature” by Mohammadreza Yarikia will go on screen at the 13th edition of Media Fright Fest, which will take place in the U.S. on April 5. 

The movie follows the story of a couple, who goes to a forest to sacrifice an animal to the goblins in order for their child to be born healthy, but they are not alone in this forest. The woman considers this a superstition until she believes it herself.

Media Fright Fest is an initiative organized by the Media Arts Council in Media, Pennsylvania. Established in 2010, the festival aims to exhibit top-quality short films spanning the genres of horror, dark fantasy, science fiction, and thriller, sourced from local, national, and international filmmakers. Held biannually, Media Fright Fest presents two distinct events, one in the spring and another in the fall, each featuring a diverse selection of films tailored to its unique lineup.
