Revealed! Here is our stunning new artwork for the forthcoming theatrical release of THE OLD DARK HOUSE!
A new 4K restoration of THE OLD DARK HOUSE, the chilling lost classic from the director of Frankenstein, The Invisible Man & The Bride of Frankenstein will be released in selected cinemas nationwide (UK & Ireland) from 27 April 2018.
Frankenstein director James Whale turned J.B. Priestley’s novel Benighted into a nerve-jangling tale that became the template for all spooky-house chillers to come. Stranded travellers stumble upon a strange old house, and find themselves at the mercy of a highly eccentric and potentially dangerous family. This atmospheric thriller features an unforgettable post-Frankenstein horror role for Boris Karloff, as the hulking, disfigured butler Morgan. Also starring in early-career roles are Melvin Douglas, Charles Laughton, Raymond Massey and Gloria Stuart of Titanic.
The release in UK & Ireland will be accompanied by a brand new trailer this specially commissioned poster artwork by Graham Humphreys, British illustrator and visual artist best known for producing publicity material for The Evil Dead and The Nightmare on Elm Street series.
THE OLD DARK HOUSE will open at BFI Southbank, HOMEmcr, Chapter Arts Cardiff, Irish Film Institute (IFI) Dublin & Filmhouse Edinburgh with many more venues to be announced.
Full details about a forthcoming Masters of Cinema home video release will be revealed on Friday 23 February 2018.
