🚨new horror alert!🚨
i was delighted to attend the premiere of a new horror film by James Ashcroft, “The Rule of Jenny Pen”🩸it’s so deeply unsettling and thought provoking, and so beautifully shot! i don’t want to leave any spoilers, i recommend going in blind
i will say this is the scariest i’ve seen John Lithgow since his role as the Trinity Killer, and Geoffrey Rush gave such a stellar performance

Okay, so I promised no spoilers in my initial post about 'The Rule of Jenny Pen' premiere, but I just HAD to share a bit more about why this film has genuinely stuck with me. From the moment I stepped into Brain Dead Studios, surrounded by fellow horror enthusiasts, there was an electric buzz that hinted at something special. The premiere itself felt like an event, and seeing the creative minds behind it, especially director James Ashcroft, on stage during the Q&A only heightened my anticipation. Let's talk about the visuals, because wow. The film is truly 'beautifully shot' as I mentioned, but it's the kind of beautiful that makes your skin crawl. And those posters? They're everywhere, and they really nail the vibe. I've seen a few versions now – one with that striking silhouette of a baby's head with red eyes, another with an upside-down doll's head that just screams unsettling. These aren't just marketing materials; they’re a prelude to the psychological dread you’re about to experience. IFCFilms and Shudder really know how to pick 'em, and their involvement makes me trust the quality. And the cast! Seriously, John Lithgow? I said it before, but his performance here is absolutely chilling. For anyone who remembers his iconic role as the Trinity Killer, you know he can deliver a truly terrifying villain, and he taps into that same unsettling energy here, but in a completely fresh way. He doesn't need jump scares; his presence alone is enough to make you feel uneasy. Then there’s Geoffrey Rush. He’s always brilliant, but in 'The Rule of Jenny Pen,' he brings a gravitas and intensity that really anchors the more surreal elements of the narrative. Their combined talent elevates this from a standard horror flick to something truly cinematic and memorable. Without giving anything away about the plot, what makes 'The Rule of Jenny Pen' so deeply unsettling is its ability to get under your skin without relying on cheap tricks. It’s more than just 'Jenny horror'; it delves into themes that will leave you thinking long after the credits roll. The film is a masterclass in building psychological tension, and it explores some truly thought-provoking ideas. It’s the kind of horror that makes you question things, rather than just covering your eyes. Mark your calendars for March 7 when it hits theaters – I promise, you won't regret going to see it, especially if you're a fan of horror that challenges you. If you're looking for a new horror movie that isn't just about gore but about genuine psychological fear, this is it. It’s a powerful experience, and I'm already eager to rewatch it and pick up on all the subtle nuances I might have missed the first time. The whole 'HORROR FILM PREMIERE' vibe at Brain Dead Studios was just perfect for setting the mood too. This one is going to be talked about for a while, trust me!
