A throwback to 1960s psychological horror thrillers, "Darling" might be something of a tongue-in-cheek homage to Roman Polanski's "Repulsion." Here, Lauren Ashley Carter (Jug Face) stars as a young woman hired as a caretaker, tasked with safeguarding an old, creepy Manhattan mansion, which she later learns is haunted -- which could also explain why she's losing her mind.

Written and directed by indie horror filmmaker Mickey Keating (who previously helmed last year's alien abduction flick "Pod"), "Darling" co-stars "Blade Runner" diva Sean Young, Brian Morvant, and horror guru Larry Fessenden, who also serves as an executive producer.

Following a small festival run last year, which included the famed genre-centric festival, Fantastic Fest, "Darling" is receiving an official release in theaters and iTunes/VOD on April 8th. Watch the trailer, above.

synopsis:
DARLING follows a lonely young woman who moves into an old, mysterious Manhattan mansion. Hired as caretaker, it's not long before she discovers the estate's haunted reputation and troubling past -- stories that slowly transform into a backdrop for her twisted and violent descent into madness... Mickey Keating's new feature is a chilling black‐and‐white psychological horror story beautifully shot in New York City and edited like a nightmare and scored like a hallucination.
