VMX Spotlight: Rebekah Kennedy!



Team VMX wants to congratulate our very own Rebekah Kennedy (who plays TENNIE in Virgin Mary Christmas) as she currently films her horror feature HOUSE HUNTING! HH (written and directed by Eric Hurt) features Art LaFleur (A Cinderella Story, The Santa Clause 2, the hit TV show The Practice), and Marc Singer (Beastmaster, Eagle Eye, The Young and the Restless).

Here's the synop:

If the American dream for most families is buying a house then for the two families headed to what they think is a simple open house, their dream is about to become a nightmare. We meet our two very different families as they search for the perfect house to call a home. When both families show up at the deserted farmhouse it quickly becomes clear that something is not right. After finding a terrified girl in the woods, and discovering that every attempt to leave the farm takes them right back to its front door, the horror of the situation sets in. Stuck in this purgatory together for days, they're haunted by a vengeful former owner bent on destroying them from within with the simple declaration that only one family will call the house a home. As the days stack up and the families search in vain for a way out the group dynamics dissolve into chaos. The acres of bare woods and fields stretching out from the house become a maddening prison they must endure until one family can ultimately overcome the other and call the house a home.

We love you Rebekah!
