The Coolest Promo Ever? ‘The House of the Devil’ on VHS!
These are the days I relish in owning my own website. We get promos from upcoming films all the time ranging from stupid t-shirts to glow in the dark pens. But today… my mind has been blown. To promote Dark Sky Films’ February 2 DVD/Blu-ray release of Ti West’s The House of the Devil (one of my top 10 films of 2009), they sent Bloody Disgusting a copy of the film on VHS. Yes, you heard correct, VHS. Those of you who have seen the film know that West’s thriller is a period piece that takes place in the 80’s. Check out images of the VHS copy below.

“Set in the 1980s and based on true, unexplained events, THE HOUSE OF THE DEVIL stars the sexy Jocelin Donahue as cash-strapped college student Samantha Hughes, who takes a babysitting job in a remote mansion with her good friend Megan (Greta Gerwig, BAGHEAD). She’s desperate for money and the pay is good, but something feels wrong, and Samantha quickly realizes that the girls are trapped. As a lunar eclipse darkens the night sky, Samantha finds that her employers–cult favorites Tom Noonan (MANHUNTER) and Mary Woronov (ROCK AND ROLL HIGH SCHOOL)–don’t have a baby at all, and have something truly terrifying in store for them.”
Sophie Thatcher stars in Nicolas Winding Refn’s Her Private Hell, and a brand new official poster this week celebrates the fact that we’re just one week from the film’s release.
Nicolas Winding Refn’s Her Private Hell will be released in theaters July 24 via Neon.
Check out the new poster down below.
In the film, when a mysterious mist engulfs a futuristic metropolis, unleashing a deadly and elusive entity, a troubled young woman searches for her father. Her quest collides with an American GI on a harrowing odyssey to rescue his daughter from Hell.
Sophie Thatcher (“Yellowjackets”), Charles Melton (“Riverdale”), Kristine Froseth (How to Blow Up a Pipeline), Havana Rose Liu (No Exit), and Diego Calva (Babylon) star.
The ensemble also includes Dougray Scott (Hitman), Aoi Yamada (Perfect Days), Shioli Kutsuna (Deadpool & Wolverine), and Hidetoshi Nishijima (Shin Ultraman).
Nicolas Winding Refn directs Her Private Hell from a script he co-wrote with Esti Giordani (“Vida”). Pino Donaggio (Carrie, Don’t Look Now) composed the score.
Refn produces under his byNWR Originals banner. Executive producers include Takuma Takasaki, Kimberly Willming, Christina Erritzøe, and Lene Børglum.
Her Private Hell is rated ‘R’ for “some strong/bloody violence, sexual content, and language.”
