The curse of Mkcah Rood is a lesser-known legend that dates back centuries. The story begins in a small village nestled deep in the countryside, where an ancient oak tree stood at the center. Locals believed that this tree possessed mystical powers and was home to the spirit of Mkcah Rood, a vengeful witch who had met her demise in the village long ago. According to the legend, anyone who dared to disturb or disrespect the oak tree would fall victim to the curse of Mkcah Rood. The curse was said to bring misfortune, illness, and death upon those who crossed its path. Whispers of the curse kept villagers at bay, with many avoiding the tree altogether.
Filmmaker Alec Asten has stayed true to the original legend of Micah Rood and constructed an eerie short film on the supposed true events.
Rood is obsessed with his apple orchard, which yields some of the sweetest fruit in New England, and he is convinced the townspeople are stealing from him. The cinematography by Marc Wishengrad is filled with stark tones, flickering shadows and splashes of vibrant color, all which help build suspense and create a spooky atmosphere.
Whispers of the curse kept villagers at bay, with many avoiding the tree altogether. For years, the curse remained a mere superstition passed down from generation to generation.
