What would you do for $2 billion?

In the trailer above, the family of a rich man who fears for his life are given little choice: either they help him survive the night while an otherworldly creature tries to kill him, or they get nothing (an ultimate rendered slightly pointless by the fact all the doors are locked and they can't leave anyway).

This one has some serious The Fall of the House of Usher vibes.

The Inheritance is in theatres from July 12.
