Trailer: Jennifer Lawrence Enters the House at the End of the Street

Well it looks like all the up and coming indie queens are getting their crack at the horror genre just as they’re blowing up.  First we got Elizabeth Olsen in Silent House and now we have Jennifer Lawrence, star of The Hunger Games, in House at the End of the Street.  The film is directed by the unknown Mark Tonderai with Elisabeth Shue, Max Thieriot and Gil Bellows co-starring

The trailer debuted today on MTV (embedded below) and I have to say I’m slightly interested in it.  The trailer explains the story in reverse which is a nice change of pace but I’m really attracted to the idea that the brother in this film is hiding his sister in his house and possibly uses her to kill people, though I could be way off as the synopsis doesn’t say that at all.  For all I know, this could end up being as mediocre as Silent House or actually something really fun and enjoyable, in a dark and twisted way of course.  Check it out and let us know what you think.

Seeking a fresh start, newly divorced Sarah (Oscar®-nominee Elisabeth Shue; Leaving Las Vegas, Piranha 3D) and her daughter Elissa (Oscar®-nominee Jennifer Lawrence; X-Men: First Class, Winter’s Bone) find the house of their dreams in a small, upscale, rural town. But when startling and unexplainable events begin to happen, Sarah and Elissa learn the town is in the shadows of a chilling secret. Years earlier, in the house next door, a daughter killed her parents in their beds, and disappeared – leaving only a brother, Ryan (Max Thieriot, My Soul to Take), as the sole survivor.  Against Sarah’s wishes, Elissa begins a relationship with the reclusive Ryan – and the closer they get, the deeper they’re all pulled into a mystery more dangerous than they ever imagined.
