Stephen Lang – who played the “Blind Man” in Don’t Breathe (watch it HERE) and its sequel – stars in genre filmmaker Lucky McKee’s “chamber thriller” Old Man, which received a theatrical, VOD, and digital release from RLJE Films on October 14th. In anticipation of the film’s release, we were able to score an interview with both Lang and McKee, and you can see the result in the video embedded above. If you want to get an idea of what we can expect to see from Old Man this weekend, check it out!
Scripted by Joel Veach, who also wrote the story as a play that was workshopped at the Actor’s Studio in New York, Old Man follows a lost hiker who stumbles upon the cabin of an erratic and reclusive Old Man. What starts off as cordial conversation soon turns dangerous as it becomes clear that one or both of them might be hiding a terrifying secret.
Marc Senter (Starry Eyes) plays the lost hiker. Liana Wright-Mark (Ocean’s 8) and Patch Darragh (Succession) are also in the cast.
Senter produced the film with Aaron B. Koontz, Ashleigh Snead, and Cameron Burns of Paper Street Pictures. David Guglielmo serves as associate producer.
McKee’s previous directing credits include May, The Woods, Red, The Woman, All Cheerleaders Die, Blood Money, Kindred Spirits, and segments of the anthologies Tales of Halloween and Deathcember. I’m a fan of several of those projects, and happen to be a fan of Lang and Senter’s work as well (I can’t say I’m familiar with Wright-Mark or Darragh yet), so I look forward to watching Old Man as soon as possible.
