After nearly three years of filming, ‘The Invitation’ has become a realitywell the movie began development in 2020, and was shot over forty days in a rural setting in Hungary and required up to six months of editing.
And it is that in the top of the pyramid of vampire films very few have been able to put the ‘Twilight’ saga face to face, and so far, this new film promises to dethrone.
“The Invitation” is produced by Emile Gladstone, who played this same role in one of the best-known horror works of recent years: “The Curse of La Llorona” (2019).
Who are the protagonists of “The Invitation”?
Behind the audiovisual magic that this new project has generated are its protagonists: Nathalie Emmanuel (“Game of Thrones”) and Thomas Doherty (“Gossip Girl”), who come to this a sinister game of sensuality within the haunted mansion.
While within the rest of the cast are: Stephanie Corneliussen (“Mr. Robot”), Alana Boden (“Uncharted”), Courtney Taylor (“Boyhood”), Hugh Skinner (“Star Wars: Episode VIII – The Last Jedi”) and Sean Pertwee (“Gotham”).
What is “The Invitation” about?
The story will revolve around the character of Emmanuel who gives life to ‘Evie’, a young woman living in New York who, after the death of her mother and with no other known relatives, decides to undergo a DNA test that leads her to a wealthy relative.
And it is that what begins as a dream for the girl ends up becoming a relentless fight for her survival against the perverse plan of a young aristocrat who acts as a host and tries to use his attractiveness to seduce her.
What is certain is that the intentions of her new family lead her to a luxurious wedding in the English countryside, and she finds herself involved in a survival nightmare while discovering twisted secrets in the history of his relatives and the disturbing intentions behind his sinful generosity.
When does “The Invitation” premiere?
It was this August 26 when the film hit American screens, while in its premiere in the rest of Latin America the exact date has not yet been given.
It is worth mentioning that the film has already had some negative reviews on the internet because the trailer reveals “too many details” about the plot, so many can guess what is going to happen and it loses all the charm.
GBR.
