A24's The Front Room is now available on digital platforms

As a horror enthusiast who has been following the genre’s evolution for decades, I must say that A24’s latest offering, “The Front Room,” is a refreshing addition to the genre. Having watched countless horror films and having been both thrilled and terrified by them, I found this psychological horror film to be a unique blend of suspense, fear, and intrigue.


Did you happen to skip A24’s recent horror flick titled “The Front Room” when it premiered on the big screen on September 6? Don’t sweat it! The film has now become available on digital platforms, allowing you to either rent or buy it for a home viewing experience. We’ll delve into the pricing details shortly. For now, let’s explore what the movie entails, who’s responsible for its creation, and which actors are featured in it.

The movie titled “The Front Room” is a psychological horror film that marks the feature film debut of directors Max and Sam Eggers. Prior to this, Max had contributed to the script of the horror film “The Lighthouse,” collaborating with his brother Robert Eggers on the screenplay. Meanwhile, Sam has gained recognition for co-writing the script for the documentary “Olympia” alongside Harry Mavromichalis.

Similar to numerous films today, “The Front Room” is inspired by another piece of literature. Specifically, it’s adapted from a 2016 short story with the same title, written by Susan Hill. The narrative centers around Belinda, a newly pregnant anthropology professor, who allows her husband’s estranged, racist stepmother into their home. However, she soon realizes that this woman is determined to usurp Belinda as the primary caregiver in the household.

In the starring role as Belinda, accomplished singer-actress Brandy takes on another horror film project. It’s worth noting that this isn’t her debut in the genre; she previously played Karla in the 1998 slasher flick “I Still Know What You Did Last Summer.” Joining Brandy in the cast is Kathryn Hunter, portraying the villainous stepmother Solange. Some of Hunter’s past acting credits include roles in films such as “Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix,” “The Tragedy of Macbeth,” “Poor Things” and “Megalopolis.” Additionally, Andrew Burnap (“WeCrashed,” “The Up and Comer”) and Neal Huff (“Split”) are part of the ensemble.

You have multiple options to either rent or own “The Front Room”. These include YouTube, Amazon Prime Video, Google Play, Apple TV, Vudu, and the Microsoft Store. On any of these platforms, you can choose to rent the movie for approximately $19.99 (before taxes) or buy it for roughly $24.99 (also before taxes). The choice is yours!
