If someone mysteriously leaves a note to warn you to leave the house, then obey that instruction.
Kevin Bacon and Amanda Seyfriend star in the psychological horror You Should Have Left that will be available On Demand on June 19.
In this terrifying, mind-twisting tale, a father fights desperately to save his family from a beautiful home that refuses to let them leave. Theo Conroy (Bacon) is a successful middle-aged man whose marriage to his much younger actress wife, Susanna (Seyfried) is shredding at the seams, frayed by her secretiveness, his jealousy, and the shadow of his past.
In an effort to repair their relationship, Theo and Susanna book a vacation at a stunning, remote home in the Welsh countryside for themselves and their six-year-old daughter, Ella (Avery Essex). What at first seems like a perfect retreat distorts into a perfect nightmare when Theo’s grasp on reality begins to unravel, and he suspects that a sinister force within the house knows more than he or Susanna have revealed, even to each other.
