'The Rule of Jenny Pen,' directed by James Ashcroft, features a unique horror narrative highlighted by a character inspired by dementia dolls. Starring Geoffrey Rush, it explores themes of tyranny within a nursing home setting. The film blends elements of horror from classic cinema and modern motifs, with a puppeteering twist from Paul Lewis. Debuting in theaters on March 7, it will stream on IFC Films and Shudder on March 28, aiming to become a standout 2025 horror icon.
"At the end of the day, the theme of the movie is about tyranny. It's about a dictator that rises to power in the least likely of places."
"I had a friend who set me up with the interview and he said, 'I've got a producer who's putting together a movie. They need puppets... and see your little mind get blown away when you find out who's involved.'"
