Tenants of Apartment 5B, on Manhattan's tony Upper East Side, never seem to make it through the entire term of their lease. In fact, most never make it past the first night. From the producer of Flesh Eating Mothers and The Suckling, The New Tenant is a haunting account of the frightful experiences of 5B's latest resident, Brian Fisher, a twenty-something bachelor getting his first taste of the big city.
After a series of mysterious events, Brian suspects that the one-bedroom he now calls home is inhabited by someone or something he can sense, but can't see. When he learns the horrific history of Apartment 5B, his suspicions are confirmed, and his greatest fears realized in a chilling conclusion that brings Brian face to face with his unwanted "house guest."
