Lizzie Borden-based film The Inhabitant to star Dermot Mulroney, Leslie Bibb

Last Updated on August 2, 2021

Dermot Mulroney and Leslie Bibb have signed on to star in director Jerren Lauder's indie horror thriller The Inhabitant, which draws inspiration from the real life Lizzie Borden case (where a woman was tried and acquited of the 1892 axe murders of her father and stepmother). 

Written by Kevin Bachar, The Inhabitant will be about 

infamous axe murderer Lizzie Borden's bloodline that runs straight through the heart of American suburbia, where a series of supernatural events reveal a dark truth behind a tormented teenager.

Mulroney and Bibb's characters are "parents challenged with the truth of their family history".

Leone Marucci of Steelyard Pictures is producing The Inhabitant with Petr Jakl. Martin J. Barab and Ara Keshishian serve as executive producers.

A supernatural horror/Lizzie Borden film isn't something that would usually interest me very much, but the casting of Mulroney and Bibb does have me interested in The Inhabitant.
