James Norrie from Sales banner AMP International was quoted saying: "The Morrigan breathes new life into the demonic possession genre. With its rich pagan folklore it manages to be a balls to the wall horror, and a brilliant female-centric genre movie showcasing just how far a mother will go to protect her child. We are thrilled to be aboard."
The film's title and synopsis references "The Morrígan," which is a figure from Irish mythology that's mostly associated with war and fate. Read more here.
