IFC Midnight

The Wind was one of the most evocative horror films and impressive directorial debuts of 2019, and if you're a fan of the genre, you absolutely need to check it out.

But because the title admittedly doesn't tell a potential viewer much about the film at all, distributor IFC Midnight opted to re-name The Wind for its global home video release, adding a quote from the movie itself as a subtitle, "The Wind: Demons of the Prairie."

Sadly one suspects this might've been a cynical move to sell the movie as a broader, trashier horror vehicle than it actually is, playing up the demonic aspect which, in fact, is incredibly subtle and low-key in the film itself.
