Exclusive: Third ‘House of the Devil’ Alternative Poster
by Marc Patterson
Today is the day folks. Can you feel the excitement? No, I’m not talking about the tingle you get a from a $100 hooker. I’m talking about the feeling you get from some good ol fashion throwback horror. If you subscribe to one of the many quality VOD service providers then you can watch Ti West’s ‘The House of the Devil’ today, in your home, before it hits theaters on October 30th.
We were able to catch the film at Fantastic Fest this year and Brutal As Hell staffer Kayley Viteo Called it “fun, suspenseful and genuinely eerie. Done almost entirely in the old-school horror style, this feels like a movie that jumped out of the 1980s and landed at my feet in 2009 by accident”. Check out the official synopsis below and make sure to check this one out!
From writer-director Ti West comes THE HOUSE OF THE DEVIL, a satanic thriller set in the 1980s starring Jocelin Donahue (JT Petty’s forthcoming THE BURROWERS), indie ingénue Greta Gerwig (HANNAH TAKES THE STAIRS, BAGHEAD), Tom Noonan (SNOW ANGELS, MANHUNTER), Mary Woronov (EATING RAOUL, THE DEVIL’S REJECTS), AJ Bowen (THE SIGNAL) and Dee Wallace (E.T., Rob Zombie’s HALLOWEEN).
Sam (Donahue) is a pretty college sophomore, so desperate to earn some cash for a deposit on an apartment that she accepts a babysitting job even after she finds out there is no baby. Mr. and Mrs. Ulman (cult actors Noonan and Woronov) are the older couple who lure Sam out to their creeky Victorian mansion deep in the woods, just in time for a total lunar eclipse. Megan (Gerwig) is Sam’s best friend, who gives her a ride out to the house, and reluctantly leaves her there despite suspecting that something is amiss. Victor (Bowen) at first seems like just a creepy guy lurking around the house, but quickly makes it clear that Sam will end this night in a bloody fight for her life….
The House of the Devil premiere today on Amazon, XBOX Live and Video on Demand and is In Theatres October 30th.
