Juan Carlos Fresnadillo’s INTRUDERS came out in limited release at the end of March; my impression of the film was that it would not really appeal to horror fans (it’s not actually a horror film in the truest sense), but it would be too strange for mainstream moviegoers. It did not make a huge impression at the box office, but now you’ll have a chance to scope it out for yourself when it hits Blu-ray and DVD on JULY 17th.

Though no one can see him, Hollow Face lurks in the corners, desperately desiring love but only knowing how to spread fear and hate. He creeps into the life of John Farrow (Clive Owen, Children of Men) after Farrow’s beloved thirteen-year-old daughter Mia (Ella Purnell, Never Let Me Go) is assaulted in their home. The line between the real and the imaginary blurs as fissures start to open within the family unit; it seems that no security measure can keep Hollow Face out.
