Blackfoot Nation Films has created a new indigenous Canadian Horror-Comedy Anthology series “Tales from the Rez” which breathes life into popular Blackfoot urban legends. Each episode is introduced by crusty Uncle Randolph (Charles Duck Chief) an Elder with one foot in the living world and the other in the spirit world. Each episode blends humour and spine-chilling suspense to offer a twist on age-old tales. The initial season takes place in the traditional territories of the Blackfoot confederacy also known as Southern Alberta, Treaty 7. The series started streaming on APTNlumi on 20October2023.
In “Grave Consequences” two weed loving young ladies exhaust their their cannabis stash and start thinking of raising some money to replace their vanished stock.
Not heeding all mores of decency the episode takes on a Poltergeistian twist. Messing with graves can have nasty consequences, perhaps even grave consequences. This creepy episode explores the link between dreams, tradition and morality. Heed the warnings of a distant Pow Wow girls!
More horror than humour in “Grave Consequences” but creativity and the unusual abound fenced in with some old fashion morality.
