‘The Inhabitant’ – Odessa A’zion Horror Movie Coming to 100 Theaters This October
In addition to Hulu’s Hellraiser, Odessa A’zion will also be seen in horror movie The Inhabitant this Halloween season, with Gravitas Ventures planning a theatrical release in October.
Deadline reports today that Gravitas has acquired North American rights to The Inhabitant, “slating it for release in over 100 theaters on October 7, 2022.”
Leslie Bibb (Mrs. American Pie), Dermot Mulroney (Umma) and Lizze Broadway (The Rookie) also star in the movie from director Jerren Lauder (Stay Out of the F**king Attic).
The film follows “Tara (A’zion), who like any other teenage girl, is just surviving high school — yet her father Ben (Mulroney) and mother Emily (Bibb) seem strangely distant. Amidst a nearby spree of gruesome axe murders, Tara has sightings of terrifying entities, forcing her to question her own sanity and shocking ancestry.
“After a visit to her aunt in a mental asylum and a night in Lizzie Borden’s actual home, Tara realizes she is inextricably tied to the horrifying curse that has plagued her bloodline for almost a century. As victims pile up and the police close in, Tara is left with no choice but to face her own demons.”
Kevin Bachar wrote the script for The Inhabitant, with Leone Marucci and Petr Jakl serving as producers, and Ara Keshishian, Martin J. Barab and Roy Scott Macfarland exec producing.
Christopher Landon (Happy Death Day, Freaky) is staying busy here in 2024, directing not only the werewolf movie Big Bad but also an upcoming thriller titled Drop.
The project for Blumhouse and Platinum Dunes is being described as a “fast-paced thriller,” and Deadline reports today that Violett Beane (Truth or Dare) has joined the cast.
Newcomer Jacob Robinson has also signed on to star in the mysterious thriller. Previously announced, Meghann Fahy (“White Lotus”) will be leading the cast.
Landon recently teased on Twitter, “This is my love letter to DePalma.”
Jillian Jacobs and Chris Roach wrote the script.
Michael Bay, Jason Blum, Brad Fuller and Cameron Fuller — “who brought the script in to Platinum Dunes” — are producing the upcoming Drop. Sam Lerner is an executive producer.
THR notes, “The film is a Platinum Dunes and Blumhouse production for Universal.”
