Some insist it must be true, others believe it is a trick on a par\nwith the Orson Welles radio romp The War of the Worlds. Many more\nhave never even heard of it.’ With these words Zampano preludes the\nexcerpts from an extraordinary film, cut together by Will Navidson from\ncameras located within his house and those he took with him into the\nlabyrinth that had sprung up there over the course of a few days.\nAccording to the Navidson record, it was when the family returned to the\nhouse from a trip to Seattle that they first discovered the additional door\nand the space behind it. Will Navidson, celebrated adventure\nphotographer, was intrigued, his partner Karen insisted that the door be\npermanently locked. But one night after a row, Navidson opened the door\nand went in. He found rooms beyond rooms, all windowless, all unlit,\nand only narrowly escaped becoming lost forever in the labyrinth. Not\nlong afterwards the spiral staircase appeared, corkscrewing downwards\nto a dark infinity. So Navidson equipped his brother Tom and others for\nan expedition, as if they were embarking on a quest into some\narchitectural jungle. The cameras rolled and they descended, and here’s\nthe audio. House of Leaves is the remarkable cult novel by Mark Z.\nDanielewsky, a labyrinth of its own kin with its multiple interwoven\nnarratives and textual tricks. This dramatic piece re-imagines the\nterrifying heart of the story…”]\nSCRIPT: Mike Walker (adapted from the novel House of Leaves by Mark Z.\nDanielewsky).\nPERSONNEL: John Taylor (producer-director).\nCAST: Eleanor Blaney (Daisy), William Hope (Will Navidson), Jeff Mash (Jed\nLeeder), Martin McDougall (Tom Navidson), Vinta Morgan (Reston), Jim Norton\n(Zampano), Richard Ridings (Holloway), Debora Weston (Karen).\nThis document was created with the Win2PDF “Print to PDF” printer available at\nhttps://www.win2pdf.com\nThis version of Win2PDF 10 is for evaluation and non-commercial use only.\nVisit https://www.win2pdf.com/trial/ for a 30 day trial license.\nThis page will not be added after purchasing Win2PDF.\nhttps://www.win2pdf.com/purchase/",
