INSIDIOUS Star Lin Shaye Goes a Little Crazy in This Trailer for Her New Thriller ROOM FOR RENT
Insidious actress Lin Shaye has got a new movie coming out called Room for Rent. It’s a thriller in which we see her descend into obsession and madness as she becomes infatuated with a young man who moves into her house.
Here’s the synopsis for the film:
Lonely widow Joyce (Lin Shaye) rents out a room to make easy money. She meets mysterious drifter Bob (Oliver Rayon) and takes him in as a long-term tenant. She becomes obsessed with her much younger guest, making him the object of her deepest romantic fantasies. When a friend's betrayal derails Joyce’s fantasy world, she seizes control of her own destiny with a deadly mission to finally get what she deserves.
While this doesn’t look like it’s going to be a good film, I’m sure that there’s an audience out there that will enjoy the story it tells. There just doesn’t seem to be anything new or unique about this, but it is a different kind of role for Shaye to take on.
The movie was directed by Tommy Stovall (Hate Crime, Sedona), and the rest of the cast includes Oliver Rayon, Valeska Miller, Linda Cushma, Casey Nicholas-Price, and Ryan Ochoa.
Room for Rent will be in select theaters starting on May 3rd, and will be available on VOD May 7th.
