Jeffrey Dean Morgan (Watchmen, Supernatural) taps into his sinister side in The Resident, a new thriller from England's renown Hammer Films.

Directed and co-written by Antti J. Jokinen - who rolled cameras on the film earlier this year in New York - The Resident finds Hilary Swank playing a doctor who moves into a new tenement only to be stalked by her landlord (Morgan). Inevitably, his creep factor rises and a game of cat and mouse begins.

What's worth noting about the project is this is the first time co-star Christopher Lee and Hammer Films have worked together since To the Devil a Daughter in '76. Jokinen, who hails from Finland, makes his English language feature debut.

The Resident was rumored to be re-titled to Invasion of Privacy, however, we can confirm it's sticking with the former moniker.
