Stephen Lang – who played the “Blind Man” in Don’t Breathe (watch it HERE) and its sequel – stars in genre filmmaker Lucky McKee’s “chamber thriller” Old Man, and a couple weeks ago we learned that RLJE Films has picked up the Old Man distribution rights and plans to give the film a theatrical, VOD, and digital release on October 14th. With the release date just a month away, a trailer for Old Man has now arrived online, and you can check it out in the embed above.
Scripted by Joel Veach, who also wrote the story as a play that was workshopped at the Actor’s Studio in New York, Old Man follows
a lost hiker who stumbles upon the cabin of an erratic and reclusive Old Man. What starts off as cordial conversation soon turns dangerous as it becomes clear that one or both of them might be hiding a terrifying secret.

Marc Senter (Starry Eyes) plays the lost hiker. Liana Wright-Mark (Ocean’s 8) and Patch Darragh (Succession) are also in the cast.
Senter produced the film with Aaron B. Koontz, Ashleigh Snead, and Cameron Burns of Paper Street Pictures. David Guglielmo serves as associate producer.
McKee’s previous directing credits include May, The Woods, Red, The Woman, All Cheerleaders Die, Blood Money, Kindred Spirits, and segments of the anthologies Tales of Halloween and Deathcember.
I was already sold on Old Man as soon as it was announced, because I’m a fan of several of McKee’s movies and am on board to watch anything he makes. If you were waiting to see the trailer before deciding whether or not you want to see Old Man, leave a comment below to let us know how it worked for you. Will you be watching Old Man in October?
