We’ve been long-time supporters of our friends over at Shudder.com. It wasn’t that long ago that we were giving them props for their first major film festival acquisition. Here we are two weeks later and they’re ready to share another (and arguably bigger) announcement: They’re entering the world of television with the acquisition of French supernatural mini-series, BEYOND THE WALLS. Now’s the time to jump on that $5 a month, folks.

Shudder subscribers will be able to check the series out later this fall. For more details, check out the full press release below:

BEYOND THE WALLS Synopsis:
30-year-old Lisa’s fate takes a dramatic turn the day she inherits a
mysterious uninhabited old house left to her in the will of its deceased
former owner. Fascinated, Lisa moves into the house without any inkling of the mysteries that await her. One night, awakened by anguished cries, Lisa tears down the walls of the house and and discovers a bizarre parallel world existing behind them. Attempting to find her way back to the real world, Lisa meets Julian, a soldier seemingly from a different era. As they try to survive the myriad of grim creatures that lurk in the shadows, both Lisa and Julian realise they have something in common: A lingering guilt over the tragic death of a loved one. And it won’t be long before those loved ones reappear to haunt their lives again…
