Roque Baños Scores Horror Thriller UMMA

UMMA, an upcoming American supernatural horror film written and directed by Iris K. Shim, is about a Korean immigrant, Amanda, and her daughter who live on a rural farm, raising bees and living without modern technology. When Amanda receives the cremated ashes of her estranged mother, it unleashes a vicious spirit intent on taking her body for itself. UMMA stars Sandra Oh, Fivel Stewart, Dermot Mulroney, and Odeya Rush. Roque Baños (EVIL DEAD [2013], OLD BOY [2013], DON’T BREATHE, THE GIRL IN THE SPIDER’S WEB) has scored the film, which is scheduled for release on March 18, 2022, by Sony Pictures Releasing.
