THE HAPPY HOUSE Opens May 3 at Cinema Village in New York

In D.W. Young's new horror comedy THE HAPPY HOUSE, a young Brooklyn couple with relationship problems (Khan Baykal and Aya Cash) head upstate to a remote bed & breakfast to work things out. From the moment they arrive at The Happy House it's one disaster after another, and they soon begin to suspect they've wandered into a real life horror movie. Events escalate from weird to terrifying as they contend with the house's batty owner, her imposing son, a moody Swedish lepidopterist, a pedantic English professor, an extraordinarily rare butterfly, the world's best blueberry muffins, a .44 Magnum, a demented serial killer, and one very strict rulebook.

A low-budget absurdist horror romp, THE HAPPY HOUSE is both a celebration and subversion of genre convention. Featuring a talented ensemble of New York actors playing an assortment of zany characters all confined to a B&B full of cuckoo clocks, the film revels in the uneasy potential of hybrid forms. Playfully defying narrative expectation, often by blatantly embracing the most conventional of scenarios only to subtly undermine them, THE HAPPY HOUSE is part drawing room comedy gone wrong and part surreal nightmare. Much like in Young's 2010 short NOT INTERESTED, a festival circuit favorite that The Hollywood Reporter called "tension filled" and We Are Movie Geeks described as "a subtle venture into the comedy of the absurd," suspense and humor converge in memorably unexpected ways.

THE HAPPY HOUSE stars Khan Baykal (DUPLICITY, NOT INTERESTED) and Aya Cash (SLEEPWALK WITH ME, THE WOLF OF WALL STREET), and also features veteran actress Marceline Hugot (ALICE, UNITED 93, FUR, TO Wong Foo THANKS FOR EVERYTHING Julie Newmar), best known for her role as the eccentric Kathy Geiss on NBC's "30 Rock".
