The cursed film Antrum: The Deadliest Film Ever Made is said to have killed nearly sixty individuals; here’s a list of everyone who has died as a result of it.
Here’s a list of every (claimed) death caused by seeing Antrum: The Deadliest Film Ever Made. The antrum is a Canadian horror film with documentary and feature-style elements, the latter of which is alleged to be responsible for nearly sixty deaths, as it is cursed and causes anyone who watches it to die shortly afterward. Antrum: The Deadliest Film Ever Made’s documentary parts explore the story behind these unexplained tragedies.
Antrum: The Deadliest Film Ever Made begins with a mini-documentary that analyses the likely origins and contents of the feature film Antrum, which is about two siblings who stray into a magical forest. Antrum, a strange film that first began to exercise its curse in 1979, was said to have surfaced suddenly at many film festivals. Several festival administrators and employees inexplicably perished, and the film went on to “murder” many more people throughout the duration of its run. In addition, the found footage film has mystical properties, causing it to vanish and reappearance at will. Various interviews examine the history of the devil in film during the mockumentary part, as he plays a key role in Antrum: The Deadliest Film Ever Made.
VHS and 1990s technology are scarier than zoom in found footage horror films.
Following the mockumentary segment, it is discovered that Antrum has resurfaced and is now available for viewing, with a warning/legal disclaimer informing viewers that they are viewing the video at their own risk. Given Antrum: The Deadliest Film Ever Made’s claimed history and its curse, anyone who views it could face a horrifying demise. Here’s a list of all the people who have died as a result of Antrum: The Deadliest Film Ever Made.
The Curse Of Film Festival Programmers
Antrum: The Deadliest Film Ever Made first appeared in 1979, when it was anonymously submitted to a number of film festivals but never accepted or screened. The reel’s submission was mysterious, and some speculated that it was the work of the devil himself. Festival programmers began to unexpectedly die after receiving Antrum. Janet Hilberg was one of the film’s first victims. Following a screening of Antrum, she had a deadly seizure. Following that, Tom Stylum died as a result of electrocution. Joe Barringer, the final programmer, died after being stung by a stonefish. The fates of the remaining four are unknown. As a result of all of this, Nathan Fleet, an interviewee, compares Antrum to The Ring’s cursed Samara videotape.
In Budapest, Hungary, in 1988, there was a theatre fire.
Another terrible Antrum death occurred in a cinema theatre in Budapest, Hungary. Antrum was first shown in a cinema in 1988, and it was the only time it would ever be shown on a big screen. The building caught fire spontaneously as Antrum was rolling. Normally, fires in movie theatres start in the projector room, but this one didn’t. Instead, it appears like the audience members themselves sparked the fire. When the small chamber was set on fire, it collapsed, taking 56 people with it. The film reel, presumably, should have burned as well, but it did not. Antrum became a cult film due to the tragedy’s nature and the film’s obscurity.
1993, San Francisco Theater
Antrum: The Deadliest Film Ever Made was last confirmed to have created an incident in a cinema theatre in San Francisco in 1993. The theatre chose to screen the film once it gained popularity. Leaving aside the curse theory in the Antrum picture, the San Francisco crowd eagerly entered the room, fully knowing of the film’s reputation. What began as a night of fun swiftly devolved into terror as the audience became increasingly agitated, aided by LSD-laced popcorn provided by a theatre employee. The audience found they were all locked in as they stampeded for the exit, leading in a melee that resulted in the deaths of several individuals, including a pregnant mother. Antrum then vanished for nearly two decades until reappearing in 2018’s Antrum: The Deadliest Film Ever Made.
Is the Antrum story true?
While the attractiveness of Antrum: The Deadliest Film Ever Made is based on the notion of it having real-world impact, neither the events depicted in the mockumentary nor the symbolic Antrum film are based on true occurrences. While unnerving, the so-called “curse footage,” like The Ring, does not truly represent a physical threat to viewers. Similarly, all of the deaths depicted in Antrum: The Deadliest Film Ever Made are fictitious and have never occurred in real life.
