Shadows of Survival is a journey that blur the lines between survival, obsession, and the supernatural. From a doctor’s appointment that spirals into madness to a haunting battle in cursed woods, these films showcase women facing dark forces both within and without. Whether it’s a final girl’s fight for survival or a widow’s desperate attempt to escape her vengeful step-sons, each story brings a fresh, terrifying perspective to the horror genre. Prepare for a night where the women aren’t just surviving—they’re taking control.
