DG’s VOD PICK OF THE WEEK: TI WEST’S THE INNKEEPERS (2011)

 

HEY BASTARDS. 

 

You have one mission; watch Ti West’s THE INNKEEPERS. The last time West punched my eyeballs it was HOUSE OF THE DEVIL, it put West on my map and I became an instant fan. That flick was an exercise in patience with a huge payoff at the end. THE INNKEEPERS though is something different. It’s more ambitious, more capable, and scary as hell. West created a film that plays rope a dope; it creates characters that you want to hang out with and then right when your guard is dropped he slaps you with a vintage ghost story. Trust me, this one you’re going to dig and get the itch to re-watch pretty quick.
 
Release date: Available now on VOD & In theaters Feb 3rd
 

 
Synopsis: From director Ti West (The House of the Devil) comes THE INNKEEPERS. Set in the venerable Yankee Pedlar Inn, which is about to shut its doors for good after over a century of service. Believed by many to be one of New England’s “most haunted hotels,” the last remaining employees -Claire (Sara Paxton) and Luke (Pat Healy)- are determined to uncover proof before it shuts down for good. As the Inn’s final days draw near, odd guests check in as the pair of minimum wage “ghost hunters” begin to experience strange and alarming events that may ultimately cause them to be mere footnotes in the hotel’s long unexplained history.
