This Wednesday Magnet Releasing will hold the premiere for Ti West’s 80’s homage The House of the Devil at the Los Angeles Screamfest Horror FIlm Festival. While the film gets a limited theatrical run on October 30th, it’s now available On Demand and on Xbox Live.

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.

Co-writer and director Austin Jennings (“The Last Drive-In with Job Bob Briggs”), working from an originating idea by Justin Martell, gets ambitious for his feature film debut.

“Photographed entirely on location in Serbia and Macedonia and on 16mm Kodak film, Eight Eyes draws from European genre cinema and American horror films of the 70s to create a nightmarish tableau of nostalgia twisted into berserk, new shapes.

Emily Sweet (V/H/S/99), Brad Thomas, and Bruno Veljanovski star. Not the Funeral Home (Executive Producers Justin Martell and Matt Manjourides) produced the film.
