I did just a couple of scenes for the film we did called Savage years ago, and I thought Brandon was a wonderful director. I wanted to work with Brendan, for probably a long time. Note: This interview has been edited for length and clarity.ĭigital Trends: How did you initially find this project, and what made you want to get involved?Įoin Macken: It was all Brendan Muldowney, to be honest with you. However, the cursed cellar haunts the rest of the family as it attempts to regain control of the house.ĭigital Trends spoke to Macken about his relationship with Muldowney, the benefits of shooting a horror film during a pandemic, his relationship with genre films, and why he continues to seek them out.
When their daughter mysteriously vanishes in the house’s cellar, it’s up to Keira to figure out how she vanished using the mathematical symbols and equations scattered throughout the house. Keira and Brian Woods, played by Elisha Cuthbert and Eoin Macken, and their two children move into a new house in Roscommon, Ireland. Written and directed by Brendan Muldowney, The Cellar is based on the same director’s award-winning short, 2004’s The Steps. However, the inclusion of complicated mathematical and scientific equations, as well as a stairway to a different dimension, allows The Cellar to stick out in a crowded genre. The Cellar is another addition to the creepy basement trope as seen in films like The Silence of the Lambs, Evil Dead, and House on Haunted Hill.
