Blumhouse has announced that writer/director David Koepp has reunited with his STIR OF ECHOES star Kevin Bacon for a new supernatural/psychological thriller called YOU SHOULD HAVE LEFT. They've also released a spooky trailer, which you can watch at the top of the article.
Here's the official synopsis:
In a new psychological thriller from Blumhouse Productions and legendary screenwriter David Koepp (Jurassic Park, Mission: Impossible, Panic Room), Kevin Bacon and Amanda Seyfried star as a couple seeking a restful vacation on an isolated edge of the world only to discover that secrets demand a reckoning … and travel with you.
In this terrifying, mind-twisting tale, a father fights desperately to save his family from a beautiful home that refuses to let them leave. Theo Conroy (Bacon) is a successful middle-aged man whose marriage to his much younger actress wife, Susanna (Seyfried) is shredding at the seams, frayed by her secretiveness, his jealousy, and the shadow of his past. In an effort to repair their relationship, Theo and Susanna book a vacation at a stunning, remote modern home in the Welsh countryside for themselves and their six-year-old daughter, Ella (Avery Essex). What at first seems like a perfect retreat distorts into a perfect nightmare when Theo’s grasp on reality begins to unravel and he suspects that a sinister force within the house knows more than he or Susanna have revealed, even to each other.
Looks like it could be fun! I especially love the revelation that the house is bigger inside than outside, like a f*cked up TARDIS. Let's hope the film can keep that sort of mystery up, which is sometimes hard to do in isolated thrillers.
Meanwhile, YOU SHOULD HAVE LEFT will be released On Demand everywhere June 19th.
