Grimmfest favourite Night at the Eagle Inn is set for DVD release in the UK on 11 October 2022 from Mainframe Pictures.
Sarah Moss (Amelia Dudley) and her ultra-snarky gay twin Spencer (Taylor Turner) are on a mission. They’ve left Philadelphia and arrived at an out-of-the-way hotel near the Canadian border; it’s the same hotel where their mother and father tragically perished on the night of the twins’ births.
Greeted by the hotel’s rather unctuous Night Manager (a brilliant performance from Greg Schweers) who tells them, despite the hotel seeming to be empty, that there’s only one room available, first impressions aren’t good; “it’s like Norman Rockwell fucked the Crypt Keeper” is Spencer’s wry observation of their host.
Later, while Spencer gets to know hunky handyman and factotum Dean (Beau Minniear), upstairs Sarah becomes absorbed by the static on the TV (even when the plug has been pulled out) and sees strange things on the screen. “Something in the atmosphere feels off” they conclude, and as they realise why the hotel is empty and what really happened to their parents, they’d be dead right.
Director Erik Bloomquist reacted to the news, saying,
“We’re very excited that UK audiences will be able to take our sardonic haunted hotel adventures into their own homes! We hope they have as much fun at the Eagle Inn as we did.”
