News regarding THE SILENT HOUSE may be a bit confusing, since the original film and its Americanized remake were made nearly back-to-back and both are awaiting U.S. releases. The Uruguayan original will open in limited theaters on May 6 before hitting on demand on May 11 from IFC Midnight. Check out a new trailer below, along with a slightly altered poster.

Based on a true story that happened in the late 40’s in a small village in Uruguay. Filmed in one single continuous shot of seventy eight minutes, La Casa Muda focuses on Laura, who, second by second, intends to leave a house which hides an obscure secret, unharmed.

It’s the first horror film in the world that discovers fear without tricks in one sequence of 78 minutes. It’s also the first feature film that was completely filmed with the digital camera Canon Mark II.
