Acclaimed internationally, "The Last Blood," directed by Jean Luc Herbulot, the winner of Best Director at the Austin Fantastic Fest, pushes back against the dominance of Western and Asian cinema, determined to create the most locally-grounded supernatural hero film in Africa. The legendary mercenary trio known as the "Hyena Squad" is hired to venture deep into war-torn West Africa, effortlessly rescuing a multinational drug lord, but on their return trip, they unexpectedly make an emergency landing in an isolated village, only to discover that the seemingly harmless locals are not as simple as they appear. The film skillfully blends action, suspense, and horror elements, merging ancient mythology, witchcraft beliefs, and bloody history. The vibrant and soulful African music transports the audience into a pure, psychedelic, and exhilarating world.
