THE OCCUPANT OF THE ROOM, Kier-La Janisse’s debut narrative film based on the 1909 short story by Algernon Blackwood, will have its world premiere at the prestigious Spanish genre festival, held in the seaside village of Sitges, Spain from Oct 9-19.
A schoolteacher’s late-night arrival at a hotel in the Alps without a reservation leaves him with no option but to accept the room of a missing hotel guest — leading to a sleepless night full of strange and uncanny occurrences. Based on the classic chiller by Algernon Blackwood.
