Official Synopsis
“All the more shocking for being “based on true unexplained events,” this suspenseful horror flick eschews the cheap scares of today’s dime-a-dozen gore fests for the retro school of slow-burn terror. Set in the 1980s, The House of the Devil centers on cute college girl Samantha (Jocelin Donahue), who responds to an ad for a babysitter to land some quick cash for a new apartment. Her skeptical pal Megan (the charming Greta Gerwig) drives her deep into the woods and deposits her at a big, creaky Victorian house lorded over by a creepy old couple with big plans to celebrate the night’s rare lunar eclipse. Desperate for the money, Samantha agrees to stay even after she finds out there’s no baby…”
