An agoraphobic woman with autism begins summoning spirits to be her friends while her brother/caretaker is gone during the day. However, the more time she spends with the spirits the more it becomes clear they aren’t so friendly after all…
Review:
“Featuring plenty of likable aspects here and nothing all that terribly detrimental, this one is an endearing and somewhat enjoyable effort that doesn’t have too much weighing it down although it does have those elements present. Give this a shot if you’re a fan of this style of low-budget indie effort or looking for a fun, quick genre film…” Don’s World of Horror and Exploitation
” …the story easily holds the attention of the viewer anyway as this really is character-based more than SFX. That being said, there are some beautifully shot sequences that are effectively unnerving, such as Sammy’s recurring dreams about Sylvia’s future.” Indie Horror Films
