Just had a quick chat with one half of the creative brother duo that is bringing us “The Inhabitants“, Michael Rasmussen. He and his brother Shawn Rasmussen (both know for Long Distance (2005), The Ward (2010) and Dark Feed (2013) are in post production of the film, and I have to say that it looks like a must see! Looking forward to having these two on a future episode of The Calling Hours Horror Podcast on Horror Society Radio!
“We shot the film in the winter of 2013 with a very small cast and crew in an old historical house in Massachusetts. The production was entirely self-funded. Given the setting, we wanted to create something that had the feel of those haunted house films from the 70’s like THE CHANGELING, THE HAUNTING OF JULIA, and BURNT OFFERINGS.”
From the press release:
Independent filmmakers Michael and Shawn Rasmussen, screenwriters of JOHN CARPENTER’S THE WARD, along with their producing partner international bestselling author Glenn Cooper are launching an Indiegogo campaign to help raise funds needed for the delivery and marketing of their new supernatural horror thriller THE INHABITANTS.
The film revolves around a young couple that gets more than they bargained for when they purchase and renovate an old bed and breakfast in New England. A series of troubling events leads the husband to suspect that something terrible is hiding within the walls of this house, and whatever it is has set its sights on his wife.
THE INHABITANTS was filmed on location inside one of the oldest houses in New England which was home to the Salem Witch Trial children. The Noyes-Parris House (c. 1669) was owned by the infamous Rev. Samuel Parris from The Crucible. His daughter Betty Parris and niece Abigail Williams were the two girls who made the initial accusations that led to the tragic witch trials that took place in Salem, Massachusetts.
Backer can choose from a wide array of fun rewards ranging from the standard t-shirt and DVD packages to one-of-a-kind items used in the film. Who wouldn’t want their very own Skeletal Infant, Tooth-Encrusted Charm, or Birthing Chair?
