The Valdemar Legacy
''The Valdemar Legacy'' ( es, La herencia Valdemar, links=no) is a 2010 Spanish pastiche horror film directed and written by José Luis Alemán which stars Laia Marull, Daniele Liotti, Paul Naschy, Silvia Abascal, Ana Risueño and Óscar Jaenada, among others. Ending with an unresolved plot, it is followed by ''The Valdemar Legacy II: The Forbidden Shadow''. While drawing from the Cthulhu Mythos, the plot does not closely adapt a particular Lovecraftian story. It was panned by critics. Plot Set in two different timelines, the plot uses an extensive analepsis to the 19th century. The film ends abruptly with a cliffhanger, only focusing on the flashback subplot pertaining the tragedy of the Valdemar couple (Lázaro and Leonor) circa 1880, thus leaving the plot not set in the past forgotten as a sort of disconnected preface. Cast Production The film was produced by La Cruzada Entertainment SL. Shooting locations included Comillas, Azpeitia, Valporquero and La Granjilla. Rel ...
