Blavity’s Shadow and Act has an exclusive preview from the upcoming film The Man in My Basement, which is set to bow in theaters and on Hulu soon.

Here’s the official description:

In the African American neighborhood of Sag Harbor, New York, Charles Blakey (Corey Hawkins) is out of work, out of luck and on the verge of foreclosure on his ancestral home. A knock on the door from a mysterious businessman, Anniston Bennet (Willem Dafoe), brings a bizarre and lucrative proposition; rent his dusty stand-up basement out for the summer and receive enough money to clear his debts for good. Once Charles accepts, he finds himself led down a terrifying path that confronts his family’s ghosts and locks the men in a terrifying puzzle, at the heart of it, race, the source of their traumas and the root of all evil.

Who else stars in the film?

Jonathan Ajayi, Gershwyn Eustache Jnr., Pamela Nomvete and Tamara Lawrance also star.

The film debuts in select theaters on Sept. 12 and will be on Hulu and Disney+ later this fall. The film is produced by Diane Houslin, John Giwa-Amu, Len Rowlands and Dave Bishop.
