Local actress Ngo Thanh Van in the movie
Local horror movie “Ngoi Nha Trong Hem” (The House in the Alley) has been introduced on some international movie websites though it has not yet made a debut in Vietnam.
“It's surprising how often people forget that horror films can make for great date movies.
But Vietnamese writer-director Le Van Kiet gets it and he's bringing the chills to Vietnam's screens on Valentine's Day with The House In The Alley,” the English language Canadian website Twitchfilm, one of the leading horror movie sights, commented last month.
Since then, the movie has been introduced on IMDB, one of the world’s biggest online movie information database. Moreover, several US film festivals, including the Tribeca Film Festival in New York, the Seattle International Film Festival in Washington, the Fantastic Festival in Houston and the Hawaiian Film Festival have said they would like to invite the movie to screen.
Directed by Le Van Kiet, the movie stars well-known local actors, including Ngo Thanh Van and Tran Bao Son. It tells the story of a couple’s discovery and struggle against supernatural phenomena in their house, after the wife has a miscarriage.
“Ngoi Nha Trong Hem” will be among the many blockbusters to entertain audiences nationwide this month, with its premiere on Valentine's Day, February 14.
