JP has made it known he is suffering from an illness. If You Can’t Buy Happiness, What Can You Buy? His twin sister Viviene who appears only in dreams but lives in a room in the basement comes from Annalise Basso (“ Snowpiercer“). The film stars Liam Aiken ( A Series of Unfortunate Events), like Francis, a man who is beckoned by an old friend to come and visit. Joe Adler ( The Maze Runner), plays the eccentric Jean-Paul Luret (J.P), a man rich in everything except family and friends. And similar to The Raven and many other of Poe’s literature loneliness, depression, friendship, and madness are among some of its more obvious themes.

It’s a movie with less of a storyline and more of a preamble that leads to a dead-end. I like a slow burn that gets to the point quickly and that is definitely so here. The Bloodhound is a directorial debut from Patrick Picard and this story is built upon a short run time. There is tension built around the notion of a climatic hammer drop that you wait and wait for. The narrative is riveting despite weird dreamy scenes and a story that seems to be about nothing at all except for this house. The characters are stiff and purposefully odd.

The Bloodhound film is dark and aesthetic and moody. I watched this movie twice and I liked it. However, The Bloodhound is based on another of Poe’s works, The Fall of the House of Usher. Sure I know he is a famed poet and literary agent and I’m definitely familiar with The Raven and The Tell Tale Heart.

Before anyone finds themself impressed with my knowledge of Edgar Allen Poe, I want to assure you I had to look him up.
