The premise
Vicaria is a brilliant teenager who believes death is a disease that can be cured. After the brutal and sudden murder of her brother, she embarks on a dangerous journey to bring him back to life.
Horror Vault's take
In a neighborhood scarred by violence and loss, a fiercely intelligent teenage girl refuses to accept that death has the final word. Driven by grief after her brother is killed, Vicaria channels her scientific obsession into a forbidden and dangerous experiment. This modern reimagining of the Frankenstein myth grounds classic horror in the very real horrors of gun violence and systemic inequality. What follows is a story that is as heartbreaking as it is terrifying.
