WHAT’S IT ABOUT?

Eager for her and her little sister to escape from their neglectful parents, teenage delinquent Rocky (Levy)is persuaded by her boyfriend Money (Zovatto) to break in to the home of a blind man (Lang) and steal enough money from his vault for her to get away. However, once they and their friend Alex (Minnette) break in to the house, they are confronted by the blind man who turns out to be more dangerous and deadly than they had anticipated. Now, Rocky and her friends must avoid being caught by the blind man before they meet their maker…

IN ONE SENTENCE, WHY SHOULD YOU BE EXCITED?

What an ingenious concept for a horror film – a home invasion movie where the monster is a deadly blind man – but hopefully that can also translate into a strong horror film in its own right.
