Reviews:
“Whilst it never quite manages that little bit extra that might have lifted it from being very good to truly great, The Seasoning House is nevertheless a superior example of modern British horror cinema.” Beyond Hollywood
“The Seasoning House is a lyrical, bleak, and deeply wounding exploration of brutality and inhumanity that cries out to be seen…” Dread Central
Production:
Filming began in January 2012 at a disused air force base in London.
