Yes, you’ve seen Death Bed: The Bed That Eats. You may or may not have seen Killer Sofa. Now, there’s The Dwelling, which is also about a haunted piece of furniture. This time, it’s a haunted antique bed. Look out — imagine the nightmares you’d have if the bed you’re about to lie down in was spectrally challenged!
Here’s the description, straight from the PR people: “Four people find themselves stuck on a haunted antique bed where leaving means suffering a gruesome death. Plagued with frightening hallucinations, they must figure out the bed’s secrets before they are ultimately picked off one by one.”
I love how seriously this film starts, with a man being killed in a field and then watching someone turn the tree he was hung on into an ornate bed. Pretty fancy for a film that was once entitled Bed of the Dead.
This is Jeff Maher’s first full-length movie as a director. He’s also written films like Antisocial 2 and been a cinematographer on several other films. It gets into some strange territory, with characters speaking back and forth through time — as long as they are near the bed.
You can check it out for yourself on DVD and on demand from Uncork’d Entertainment.
DISCLAIMER: We were sent this film by its PR team.
UPDATE: Thanks to jyvurentropy for catching my typo.

I might check this out. It sounds campy 😛 And just wanted to point out you missed a word in your first sentence. I think it’s supposed to say “You’ve seen death bed.”
Hey, thanks! Yeah. The writing is fast and furious most days at the site. Every now and then, one slips by us. Thanks for the support!
