The heroes need a hand–literally–in this excerpt from the UK horror film releasing next week.

4 Digital Media brings THE CURSE OF HOBBES HOUSE to VOD, digital platforms and DVD December 15. Directed by Juliane Block from a script she wrote with Wolf-Peter Arand, it stars Mhairi Calvey, Makenna Guyler, Waleed Elgadi, Kevin Leslie, Jo Price, Emma Spurgin Hussey and Nick McMillen. The synopsis: “After the death of her aunt, Jane Dormant [Calvey] travels to the family’s remote, ancestral home hoping to receive a large inheritance. When Jane’s estranged half-sister Jennifer [Guyler] arrives at Hobbes House to claim her part of the estate, the sisters’ simmering hate ignites. But then a violent, unexpected storm cuts the estate off from outside help and a wave of bloodthirsty zombies lays siege. Now the sisters have to learn how to fight back together.”
