"Our Future Death Is Hunting Us!"

A misfit group of unwitting high school students stumble upon a cursed object, an ancient Aztec Death Whistle. They discover that blowing the whistle and the terrifying sound it emits will summon their future deaths to hunt them down. As the body count rises, the friends investigate the origins of the deadly artifact in a desperate effort to stop the horrifying chain of events that they have set in motion.

Cursed magic items are like catnip to me when they crop up in horror movies like this, because of the possibility of 'translating' them into treasure items for Dungeons and Dragons-style roleplaying games..

Starring Logan's Dafne Keen and Shaun of The Dead's Nick Frost, Whistle has a great pedigree and is due in cinemas on February 6.
