Head In The Closet With ‘Lovely Molly’ Director Eduardo Sanchez
Lovely Molly, which is currently available on demand DVD from July 16th through September 15th, will release on DVD and Blu-ray August 28 from Image Entertainment. Starring Gretchen Lodge, Johnny Lewis, Alexandra Holde, and Jane Fleming, extras will include 4 features (“Path To Madness”, “Haunted Past”, “Demonic Forces”, “Is It Real”), plus the theatrical trailer.
And now we have a look at a commentary clip entitled “Crying in the Closet.”
From Blair Witch co-drector Eduardo Sanchez, “‘Lovely Molly’ is a gripping horror thriller that begins as newlywed Molly Reynolds moves back into her long-abandoned childhood home. Soon, she experiences unnerving and impossible things. What starts as a simple story about things going bump in the night escalates into a battle for dominion over Molly’s spirit, as she is beset by a cunning, malevolent force bent on wreaking havoc and terror on Molly and her family. Richly exploring the parallels between psychosis, addiction, and demonic possession to chilling effect, ‘Lovely Molly’ shows us what really happens before the exorcist arrives.”
Lovely Molly had its World Premiere to critical acclaim at the 2011 Toronto International Film Festival’s Midnight Madness and had its U.S. premiere at the 2012 South By Southwest Film Festival.
Are you ready to go back?
After a record-breaking box office run and an extended cut re-release, A24 and director Kane Parsons’ Backrooms is heading home to Digital.
Backrooms will be available to rent or buy this Tuesday, July 14.
In the film, Chiwetel Ejiofor stars in Backrooms as the owner of Cap’n Clark’s Ottoman Empire, who discovers a strange doorway in the basement of the furniture showroom. He sets out to explore the mysterious, liminal space, walking headfirst into a creepypasta nightmare.
Renate Reinsve (A Different Man) also stars in Backrooms.
Will Soodik wrote the screenplay.
I wrote in my review, “Backrooms is at once complex and sparse, but never repetitive. It might be set in 1990, but it effectively captures modern anxieties and isolation in a way that frequently makes your skin crawl. While the journey ultimately loses steam by its cryptic end, Parsons’ visual representation of the human psyche disturbs like no other.”
YouTube prodigy Kane Parsons makes his feature directorial debut based on his creepypasta-inspired video series, which debuted in 2022 and has amassed over 190 million views to date.
