Descendant with Bonus film: Roman

Movie / Show Details

This two-film collection pairs Descendant and Roman, both atmospheric horror thrillers exploring psychological darkness and supernatural terror. In Descendant, Katherine Heigl plays Ann Hedgerow, a distant relative of Edgar Allan Poe who reconnects with fellow Poe descendant Ethan (Jeremy London) and discovers that her family’s connection to the famous author carries sinister consequences. Roman follows a socially isolated man whose fixation on an attractive neighbor (Kristen Bell) spirals into obsession and violence when a chance meeting takes a disturbing turn, forcing him to conceal his actions while an intrusive neighbor (Nectar Rose) disrupts his fragile existence.

Released on DVD by Echo Bridge Home Entertainment, this single-disc set runs nearly three hours and carries an R rating for mature content. Both films were directed by Angela Bettis, Del Tenney, and Kermit Christman, with supporting performances from Arie Verveen and Lucky McKee. Owning this used copy lets you experience two dark psychological tales without the cost of purchasing them separately.
