EPIX AND BLUMHOUSE UNVEIL PREMIERE DATES FOR FIRST TWO FILMS IN ORIGINALS SLATE

"A HOUSE ON THE BAYOU" AND "AMERICAN REFUGEE" TO SIMULTANEOUSLY DEBUT ON EPIX AND FOR DIGITAL PURCHASE FROM PARAMOUNT HOME ENTERTAINMENT

Films Kick Off Previously Announced Eight-Film Slate Between Blumhouse Television and EPIX With First Look Trailer of A House on the Bayou Launched Today Out of BlumFest 2021

New York, NY - October 1, 2021 - Premium network EPIX(R) and Blumhouse today announced the premiere dates for the first two films in their originals slate: A House on the Bayou will premiere on November 19, followed by American Refugee on December 10. The films will also be available for digital purchase from Paramount Home Entertainment the same day as the EPIX premiere.

A House on the Bayou and American Refugee are part of the previously announced slate, in which Jason Blum's television company will develop and produce eight elevated, standalone horror/genre-thriller movies exclusively for EPIX. Blum will serve as executive producer. Building on the television company's success with the Welcome to the Blumhouse movies slate for Amazon and Into the Dark anthology series for Hulu, the deal is the first-of-its-kind for EPIX, which is adding films to its growing slate of premium original content (most recently, it exclusively debuted the critically acclaimed horror-thriller St Maud).

About A House on the Bayou

In an effort to reconnect and mend their relationship, Jessica and John Chambers (Angela Sarafyan, Paul Schneider) seek an idyllic getaway with their daughter Anna (Lia McHugh) to a remote mansion in rural Louisiana. When suspiciously friendly neighbors show up for dinner uninvited, the weekend takes a sinister turn as the fragile family bond is tested and dark secrets come to light.

Cast: Paul Schneider (Tales from the Loop), Angela Sarafyan (Westworld), Lia McHugh (The Eternals), Jacob Lofland (Maze Runner), Doug Van Liew (Ida Red) and Lauren Richards (Doom Patrol).

Executive producers are Jason Blum, Chris McCumber and Jeremy Gold for Blumhouse, and Mary-Margaret Kunze.

Blumhouse, Epix and Paramount debuted a first look at the film with a new trailer out of Blumhouse's annual fan event BlumFest 2021 today, and available to view on Blumhouse YouTube, Facebook and Twitter handles.

Directed by Emmy award-winning multi-hyphenate Ali LeRoi (Everybody Hates Chris, The Obituary of Tunde Johnson) from a script by Allison & Nicolas Buckmelter, which was awarded the distinguished Academy Nicholl Fellowship in Screenwriting, an international screenwriting competition identifying talented new screenwriters.

American Refugee is about a family seeking shelter in a neighbor's bunker, while the American economy is in collapse and the nation under martial law. There, they find the danger inside is potentially greater than the danger outside.

Cast: Erika Alexander (Get Out), Derek Luke (The Purge TV series), Sam Trammell (True Blood, The Fault in our Stars), Peyton Jackson (Nobody's Fool), Zamani Wilder (Sacred Lies), Jessi Case (Mother's Day), and Vince Mattis (Halloween).
