A young college student who is struggling financially takes a strange babysitting job which coincides with a full lunar eclipse. She slowly realizes her clients harbor a terrifying secret, putting her life in mortal danger.

Bringing Hitchcockian flair to this nostalgic ode to the heyday of the slasher film, Ti West’s terrifying third feature favors menacing atmospherics over shock effects. Featuring a cusp-of-fame Greta Gerwig, The House of the Devil ekes nail-biting suspense from the things that go bump in the night.
