Video Interviews: Bacon, Seyfried, Koepp, and Blum on You Should Have Left

Last Updated on July 30, 2021

Twenty-one years after STIR OF ECHOES, that film's writer/director David Koepp and star Kevin Bacon have re-teamed for a new horror film called YOU SHOULD HAVE LEFT, which is now available to watch on Amazon Prime Video.

To learn more about this project, our own JimmyO sat down for interviews with Bacon and Koepp, as well as co-star Amanda Seyfried and producer Jason Blum. All of the interviews can be seen in the video embedded above. 

Based on a novella by Daniel Kehlmann, YOU SHOULD HAVE LEFT has the following synopsis: 

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.

Check out the interviews, give the trailer a look below, and get ready for YOU SHOULD HAVE LEFT!
