Interview: Director Brian O’Malley talks ‘The Lodgers’

On his latest podacst/interview, host Stuart Wright talks to director Brian O’Malley about his period, gothic horror The Lodgers, which is released on Monday 25th June on DVD and VOD platforms, courtesy of Thunderbird Releasing.

The Lodgers is a classic gothic ghost story telling the haunting story of orphaned teenage twins who reside on a crumbling family estate in 1920s rural Ireland. Though isolated, Rachel and Edward are not alone – for they share the house with sinister unseen entities that have three strict rules: to be in bed by midnight; never allow anyone to cross the threshold; and never permanently leave the house. Failure to abide by these rules will unleash the wrath of those who reside in the basement – The Lodgers. However, when the arrival of a troubled war veteran encourages a sexual awakening in Rachel and a confrontation with Edward, she realises that she will have to fight alone to escape the family curse that has long haunted them.
