Do you guys remember us telling you about a horror/comedy heading our way called THE SELLING? Don’t feel bad if it’s not ringing any bells. The last update we got on this shite came last April. That’s over a year ago people…
Now finally we’re getting word on THE SELLING being snatched up for distribution. About time I suppose. According to The Hollywood Reporter’s Heat Vision blog the supernatural romp has just been snatched up by GoDigital. It seems the company will be releasing the flick via all video-on-demand platforms starting August 21st. Works for me!
Richard Scarry is too nice. He’s a real estate agent who tries to talk people out of buying houses they can’t afford. When his business partner Dave Ross comes up with a scheme to flip an old house for profit he only agrees because he needs to find a way to pay for his sick mother’s medical bills.
As Richard and Dave start fixing up the house for buyers it becomes obvious why their real estate nemesis Mary Best was so eager to pass the house along to them. Disembodied voices tell them to leave, walls bleed, and a portal to the spirit realm opens in an upstairs closet. In short, the house is haunted.
Leveraged to the hilt, Richard must figure out a way to get rid of the house before its ghostly inhabitants ruin his life. He enlists the aid of his intimidating old Sunday school teacher Father Jimmy to perform an exorcism and a Ghost Right’s Activist named Ginger Sparks to conduct a seance, each with disastrous results.
As the pressure mounts, Richard finds someone to take possession of the house. But when an evil spirit decides to move out of the house and into Richard’s body, he soon discovers he has a whole new set of possession problems.
The Emily Lou-directed, Gabriel Diani-penned SELLING stars Diani, Janet Varney (below), Jonathan Klein, Etta Devine, Nancy Lenehan and Barry Bostwick. To go right along with today’s announcement we’ve also got a look at two new posters for THE SELLING, which can be found above and directly below.
So there you have it folks! Another supernatural horror/comedy we can look forward to. Don’t forget, THE SELLING drops onto all major VOD platforms starting August 21st!
