Released soon on UK digital platforms from 30th September is Robert Heydon’s (Ecstasy) haunting psychological thriller ISABELLE (2019) starring Adam Brody (The O.C., Shazam!, Sleeping with Other People), Amanda Crew (Silicon Valley, The Age of Adaline), Zoë Belkin (Carrie, Kiss & Cry) and Sheila McCarthy (The Umbrella Academy, The Day After Tomorrow). Moved house recently and praying there’s no secret evil hiding in the loft? To celebrate its impending release, we’ve taken inspiration from ISABELLE’s iconic plot and have selected ‘Top 10 Horror Films when a House Move Turns Evil’. Dating back to its pioneer, Rosemary’s Baby (1968), and into this generation’s newest classics, such as Get Out (2017) and Mother! (2017), we hope this could further inspire you to create a piece of your own?
