Here's the teaser trailer to 'The Inheritance,' which Robert O'Hara is making his directorial debut. The film is produced by Effie T. Brown and her production company, Duly Noted Inc.
Five cousins find out about a centuries old family ritual of sacrifice to an African spirit and must fight for their lives or take their place in a long line of offered souls.
The story centers on family friends (played by Golden Brooks, Darrin Dewitt Henson, Rochelle Aytes, Shawn Michael Howard, and D.B Woodside) who gather during a winter storm for a 'secret' reunion at the family estate. The connection to their tortured history is one of only passing fascination. The reunion turns deadly when the elders have to make good on an ancient pact with a spirit of an ancestor. Now, it's this generation's turn to make the ultimate sacrifice. It is their duty and their destiny, but they won't give up without a fight to survive.
Also starring in the film are Keith David, Novella Nelson, Adriane Lenox, André De Shields, and Lanre Idewu.
The film was previously known as 'My Place in the. Horror.'
The film played at Jeff Friday's 14th Annual American Black Film Festival in June where the Grand Jury Prize for Best Performance by an Actor was awarded to Brooks for her performance.
