Your Host: Jackie Earle Haley Exclusive On Terrifying New Horror

Before the release of Your Host, we sat down with Jackie Earle Haley to find out more. In our conversation, the actor discussed what drew him to the role of Barry Miller, his filmmaking process and much more.

Your Host follows four friends who become trapped in a sadistic game show. Forced to outwit their sinister host (Earle Haley), the group must survive a series of twisted games to earn their freedom.

Alongside Earle Haley, the film stars Ella-Rae Smith, Jamie Flatters and David Angland. The film was directed by horror aficionado DW Medoff and based on Joey Miller’s original script.

Official Synopsis:

Four 23-year-old friends go on a birthday retreat to a luxury cabin, while partying, they find a VHS Camcorder filming them from the woods. During the night, they are drugged in their sleep by a man in all black who stays hidden in the shadows…but when they wake up, they find themselves in an abandoned factory transformed into a gameshow-like torture room.

Their captor is a deranged host in an orange-velvet suit with a terrifying mask who forces the friends to play games and hurts them if they lose.

In a twist of fate, it seems this is not random abuse. The host has a connection to one of the friends, and he keeps it a secret. He gives them all a chance to admit it was them, to set three free and kill the one. When his target victim doesn’t come clean, the brutal games continue.

To survive, they must play unique and deadly games that only a psychotic gameshow host could invent. The host laughs as the friends betray, hurt, and eventually start to kill each other. But the only way to escape…is to win.
