Chicago – The “Scream Queen” is a venerable show business category, and there are few better practitioners of the art than Portia Chellelynn. Her latest scream role is in “H.P. Lovecraft’s Witch House” – directed by Bobby Easley – which has just been released on digital through Video-On-Demand and DVD.
“H.P. Lovecraft’s Witch House” – loosely based on the Lovecraft novel – has Chellelynn as an escapee from domestic abuse, who resurrects her graduate thesis on geometrical shapes and their use in the practice of witchcraft. She is also staying in a local haunted house near campus, and her research causes some weird vibrations to begin among the residents and the house itself. Bobby Easley directs a stylish and layered film, full of ominous tones and witchy gore.
