The latest collaboration between Blumhouse and EPIX is the horror film The Visitor, which will be available on Digital and VOD as of October 7th before reaching EPIX in December. In anticipation of the October release, a trailer for The Visitor has arrived online and can be seen in the embed above.
Justin P. Lange (The Seventh Day) directed The Visitor from a screenplay by Adam Mason and Simon Boyes, who previously wrote the Into the Dark movie Blood Moon for Blumhouse and Hulu. For this one, Mason and Boyes crafted the following story:
When Robert and his wife Maia move to her childhood home, he discovers an old portrait of his likeness in the attic – a man referred to only as ‘The Visitor’. Soon he finds himself descending down a frightening rabbit hole in an attempt to discover the true identity of his mysterious doppelgänger, only to realize that every family has its own terrifying secrets.
The Visitor stars Finn Jones (Iron Fist), Jessica McNamee (Mortal Kombat), Dane Rhodes (Where the Crawdads Sing), Donna Biscoe (Saints & Sinners), Shanna Forrestall (The Last Exorcism), Thomas Francis Murphy (The Walking Dead), Victoria Paige Watkins (Secrets of Sulphur Springs), Victoria Harris (NCIS: New Orleans), Susan McPhail (Night of the Witch), Elizabeth Newcomer (Assassination Nation), and Sue Rock (Texas Chainsaw 3D).
Blumhouse’s Jason Blum executive produced the film alongside Bradley Pilz, Greg Gilreath, Adam Hendricks, Jeremy Gold, Chris McCumber, and David Grove Churchill Viste.
