January 26, 2009 With Europe producing the best horror in the world right now, every horror title from the old country that gets a U.S. release date is cause for celebration. Sony just announced they had acquired rights to Fabrice du Welz's "Vinyan" and will release the film on disc April 7.



Here's Sony's new official synopsis:

A couple leaves the civilized world behind and descends into a living nightmare in this chilling horror thriller. Six months after losing her only child in the Southeast Asia tsunami, Jeanne is convinced she sees him in a film about orphans living in the jungles of Burma. While her husband is worried that she's losing her mind, he agrees to a search mission. Introduced to a dangerous gang of human traffickers, who leave them stranded, the couple descend upon a treacherous jungle and plunge into a supernatural kingdom where the dead never really die.
