Maltauro Entertainment in association with Baumant Entertainment has announced the Blu-ray, DVD and Digital HD release of Never Open the Door. Writer-director Vito Trabucco (Bloody Bloody Bible Camp) and writer-producer Christopher Maltauro have created a chilling homage to the twisted and otherworldly tales of the original "Twilight Zone", "Outer Limits" and "Alfred Hitchcock Presents" series.  Never Open the Door is available to rent or own on Amazon Instant Video and Google Play.

Never Open the Door stars Jessica Sonneborn (Dog Eat Dog, House Across The Street), Kristina Page (The Haunting of Alice D), George Troester ("Face Off") and Deborah Venegas (Bloody Bloody Bible Camp).







Three happy couples retreat to a cozy secluded cabin in the woods to enjoy Thanksgiving. A badly wounded stranger appears at the door, and when they let him in, he throws up blood and collapses on the floor. As he dies, he points towards the lovers and croaks his final words: "Never open the door". The dumbfounded group of friends start to panic as one of their own inexplicably disappears. Doubt rises by the minute and mistrust soaks through the cabin.  As strange men surround the cabin, escape becomes paramount.  Who will open the door? 

The Blu-ray (SRP $24.95) and DVD (SRP $19.95) release of Never Open the Door will exclusively include interviews with the cast and crew, behind the scenes footage and more.

Arthouse Indie Horror 'Sarah's Room' Hits Amazon Prime

Sarah's Room, the feature debut of Scottish director Grant McPhee, is a dark and brooding study of one man's descent into paranoia. When Joe's wife played by Kitty Colquhoun, unexpectedly invites her best friend Sarah (played by Hanna Stanbridge) to live with them, Joe (played by Patrick O'Brien) becomes obsessed with her, convinced that she is not what she seems. 

With echoes of indie horror favourites Kill List and The Strange Color of Your Body's Tears, the film is beautifully shot by McPhee himself. Also a cinematographer, McPhee worked in the camera departments of films such as Under the Skin and Cloud Atlas before making the leap to directing with Sarah's Room.

Shot in just five days for a budget of £4000, Sarah's Room is the first step in McPhee's plan to reinvigorate the Scottish indie film scene from the ground up. His drive and passion has produced a truly unique film, drenched in atmosphere.
