Writer/director Patrick Picard riffs on Edgar Allan Poe’s gothic classic 'The Fall of The House of Usher' with his feature debut The Bloodhound. The single location thriller stars Liam Aiken as Francis, a disillusioned young man called to the sprawling estate of his old friend (Joe Adler), who lives there with his twin sister (Annalise Basso). There, Francis finds himself troubled by nightmares as he begins to realise all is not well in the house.
The Bloodhound is on Arrow Video Channel from December 1st.
Check out the trailer and poster below.
The official synopsis reads:
Francis (Liam Aiken), a dispossessed young man, is summoned to the secluded home of his wealthy childhood friend, JP Luret (Joe Adler), who is suffering from a mysterious affliction. Upon his arrival, Francis realizes that JP and his ethereal twin sister Vivian (Annalise Basso) are the sole surviving members of the privileged Luret family, whose legacy has been one of depression and self-destruction, and the only occupants of their family estate. As the old friends attempt to reconnect, a number of inexplicable incidents begin to occur within the house, and Francis finds himself drawn into a world of malaise and despair, where an act of betrayal might provide his only way out.
