Resident Demon

2004 · 82 min

A cheap, grubby haunted-house chiller that plods along with more amateur effort than genuine scares.

Tagline
She found the secret to immortality... Death!
Overview
Soon after purchasing their first home, two newlyweds realize they're not the only ones living there … but their "squatter" is no ordinary being. Sharing their space is the spirit of a female serial killer who took her own life in the bathtub while soaking in her victims' blood.
