After a sold-out release of “Terrifier,” Epic Pictures’ horror label, Dread Central Presents, is coming out with a collector’s edition Blu-ray/DVD Combo Pack of its elegantly haunting supernatural thriller “The Lodgers” Tuesday May 29.

In this gothic supernatural thriller, a family curse confines orphaned twins Rachel (Charlotte Vega, “The Misfits Club”) and Edward (Bill Milner, “X-Men: First Class”) to their home as punishment for their ancestors’ sins. Bound to the rules of a haunting childhood lullaby, the twins must never allow any outsiders inside the house, must be in their rooms by the chime of midnight and must never be separated from one another. Breaking any of these rules will incur the wrath of a sinister presence that inhabits the house after midnight. While Edward is committed to this ill-fated life, he’s becoming more unhinged due to the fact that Rachel is not. Smitten by a local soldier (Eugene Simon, “Game of Thrones”), Rachel grows skeptical of the strict rules and begins to rebel, desperate to escape the oppression and misery of their captivity.
