Pics and plot details from Uwe Boll’s anthology contribution, Basement

Last Updated on August 5, 2021

Back in August we told you about the upcoming anthology THE PROFANE EXHIBIT, another project that proves anthologies are back in a big way. The flick has since progressed greatly and added some interesting talent behind the scenes – and one of those talented people is the one and only Uwe Boll.

Today brings us an update on Boll’s segment, titled BASEMENT. The film’s official Facebook page has been updated with two images from Boll’s piece, which you can see above and below. BASEMENT features the great Clint Howard (who has worked with Boll several times in the past), as well as Tara Cardinal and TEXAS CHAINSAW MASSACRE 2 star Caroline Williams.

Here’s what you need to know about BASEMENT:

Uwe Boll’s film is about the corruption of a family in a world where things are not always what they appear to be. A world where monsters parade as family men and home is another word for hell. In an ideal suburban home which could best be described as boring and ordinary a horrible secret exists deep in the basement. Clint Howard and Caroline Williams play a married couple with an ordinary life- except for the fact that they keep their starving and abused daughter in a locked basement room that she has not left in years. In this perverse nightmare scenario that is unfortunately based on fact, all the young daughter (Tara Cardinal) wants to do is go outside and into the sun. Instead she must endure daily cruelties. This is a tale of sexual depravity and psychological torture, and a subversive look at the depraved realities of suburban life.

Other directors for THE PROFANE EXHIBIT include Richard Stanley, Marian Dora, Yoshihiro Nishimura, Sergio Stivaletti, Ryan Nicholson, Michael Todd Schneider, and Andrey Iskanov. Many more to still be announced.
