Elizabeth, recently hitched to brainiac science whiz Henry (played with equal parts charm and menace by Ciaran Hinds), finds herself living the high life in H-dawg’s opulent mansion, eatin’ fancy grub and generally havin’ a real princess style good time. Soon ol’ hubby has to skedaddle off on some business thing or anther and he leaves Elizabeth in the care of the servants; blind Oliver (Matthew Beard) who digs on flower arranging (as one does), and vaguely ominous Claire (a many nuanced turn from Carla Gugino)…and he also tells her there is one room in the house she must never enter. She of course does this a mere p.h. after he leaves and discovers a strange experiment…and when Henry discovers that she’s disobeyed he hacks her to pieces with a rather large knife.

Sebastian Gutierrez’s gem of a thriller, Elizabeth Harvest, will soon arrive in theaters and On Demand. Ahead of its release, I had the opportunity to talk with Gutierrez, the same man behind Gothika, Snakes on a Plane, The Eye, and Girl Who Walks Into a Bar, about his new visually striking film that has more twists than a Slinky factory. Abby Lee stars as Elizabeth, a young newlywed who arrives at her new husband’s (Cirán Hinds) home.

When he goes on a trip she can’t resist entering the room, but when she does, her whole life comes crashing down. Sebastian: “Elizabeth Harvest is an old-fashioned European horror. Don’t you think?” Horror Fuel: “I do. It has a similar feel as the original Suspiria.” Sebastian: “It’s influenced by Dario Argento. There was a strain of horror

From writer-director Sebastian Gutierrez, who penned The Eye and Snakes on a Plane, comes Elizabeth Harvest, making its theatrical debut this August. In the film, “newlywed Elizabeth (Abbey Lee) arrives with her brilliant scientist husband Henry (Ciaran Hinds) to his magnificent estate, where he wows her with lavish dinners and a dazzling tour of the property. The house staff, Claire (Carla Gugino) and Oliver (Matthew Beard), treats her deferentially but she can’t shake the feeling something is off. Henry explains that everything in his world now belongs to her, all is for her to play in — all except for a locked-off room he forbids her from entering. When he goes away for business Elizabeth decides to investigate and finds she may not be who she thinks she is at all.” This thriller’s all-star cast includes Abbey Lee (Mad Max), Carla Gugino (Gerald’s Game), Ciaran Hinds (The Terror), Matthew Beard (The Imitation Game), and Dylan Baker (Trick ‘r Treat).
