RELEASE INFO AND STILLS FOR I TRAPPED THE DEVIL

I Trapped the Devil, the debut film from writer/director Josh Lobo, arrives in theaters and On-Demand on April 26th, 2019, courtesy of IFC Midnight. The film stars AJ Bowen (You're Next, The House of the Devil), Susan Burke (Southbound), and Scott Poythress (The Signal).

Man, I dig these types of films, where trust is a huge issue and the difference between the end of the world (or the like) or an innocent person dying for no reason, because when done proper, it's a play on your emotions for the duration of the movie. And, considering IFC Midnight's track record, I'm suspecting this will be a winner.

Christmas is supposed to be a time for peace and joyful family reunions. But when Matt (AJ Bowen) and his wife Karen (Susan Burke) show up unannounced at the home of his estranged brother Steve (Scott Poythress) to celebrate the holidays, they are instead greeted with a horrifying surprise: trapped in the basement is a man. But not just any man. Steve believes that his hostage is none other than the devil himself. As shock and skepticism turn to fear and paranoia, Matt and Karen find themselves facing a terrifying quandary: is Steve dangerously unhinged? Or could the mysterious stranger really be evil incarnate? Either way, the stage is set for a true Christmas from hell.

He's the puppet master. You don't see him, but he pulls the strings that gets things done. He's the silent partner. He's black ops. If you notice his presence, it's the last thing you'll notice — because now you're dead. He's the shadow you thought you saw in that dark alleyway. You can have a conversation with him, and when you turn around to offer him a cup of coffee, he's already gone.
