Scout Taylor-Compton is back and starring in her first horror film since 2014’s Flight 7500. The actress that played Sarah in Wicked Little Things, Laurie Strode in Rob Zombie’s Halloween and H2, and Lita Ford in The Runaways will be seen in Rich Ragsdale’s Ghost House. A modern take on the J-horror genre, Ghost House is scheduled to hit select theaters and VOD on August 25, 2017 courtesy of Vertical Entertainment.
Rich Ragsdale (The Curse of El Charro) directed this feature based on the script by Kevin O’Sullivan & Jason Chase Tyrrell. It was executively produced by Luke Daniels (Fear Clinic) & Alan Pao (It Follows). Cast members starring alongside Compton include Super 8‘s James Landry Hebert, The Blackcoat’s Daughter‘s Elana Krausz. Mark Boone Junior and Michael S. New.
Bloody-Disgusting lists the synopsis as: “A young couple, Jim and Julie, are vacationing in Thailand where Julie falls in love with photographing small shrines called “Ghost Houses” that are believed to give spirits shelter and comfort. A couple of British travelers take them into the countryside with the promise of showing Jim and Julie a ghost house graveyard where many of the shrines are discarded. After leaving the graveyard with a souvenir, Julie is increasingly plagued by visits from a malevolent spirit that threatens both her sanity and her life. After Julie is literally frozen in a state of terror, Jim must find a way to lift the curse before he loses Julie to the ghost world forever.”
