Social House Films, the genre production company founded by the filmmaking duo of Aaron Fradkin and Victoria Fratz Fradkin makes the leap from viral YouTube shorts to features with BEEZEL, coming just in time for the witching season.
Spanning 60 years, BEZEEL is the terrifying tale of three unwitting guests who discover the sinister secret living beneath the floors of a cursed New England home – an immortal witch with an insatiable appetite for human flesh and souls! Beezel must be fed, and this eternal responsibility falls to an unlucky victim who must eventually pass this unsavory duty to another. In this clip, shared exclusively with RUE MORGUE, the evil crone’s caretaker (Bob Gallagher) brutally passes the torch to his unwitting successor (LeJon Woods).
“BEEZEL has a darkness that sinks you deep into a terrified trance from the very first scene and doesn’t let go,” says writer-director Aaron Fradkin. “It’s the kind of film you won’t be able to stop thinking about – even when it’s done,” adds writer-star Victoria Fratz Fradkin.
BEEZEL, presented by Epic Pictures’ specialty horror label DREAD, begins its limited theatrical run on September 20. The film will be available to rent or purchase via video-on-demand beginning September 24.
