There’s nothing I like more than a good horror/comedy that’s more on the horror and less on the comedy. That looks to be the case for the upcoming film Housebound from XLrator Media. Judging by what I’ve already seen, this film has some truly scary set pieces with a smattering of hilarity thrown into the mix. We’ve got a new trailer and key art for you to check out after the break.
Look for Housebound in theaters and on demand/itunes on October 17th, 2014.
The film is written and directed by Gerard Johnstone and stars Morgana O’Reilly, Rima Te Wiata and Glen-Paul Waru.
Plot Synopsis
Kylie Bucknell is forced to return to the house she grew up in when the court places her on home detention. Her punishment is made all the more unbearable by the fact she has to live there with her mother Miriam – a well-intentioned blabbermouth who’s convinced that the house is haunted. Kylie dismisses Miriam’s superstitions as nothing more than a distraction from a life occupied by boiled vegetables & small-town gossip. However, when she too becomes privy to unsettling whispers & strange bumps in the night, she begins to wonder whether she’s inherited her overactive imagination, or if the house is in fact possessed by a hostile spirit who’s not particularly thrilled about her return.
