Dani wants to spend the night alone in the old country house that is soon to become the new home for husband Ted and herself. Then there’s a knock at the door—and shortly afterwards she’s dead. A year later, Dani’s blind, clairvoyant sister Darcy turns up at Ted and his new partner’s house—with a gift that is as unusual as it is sinister. Damian McCarthy (Caveat, SLASH 2021) not only delivers one of the scariest opening scenes ever, his highly effective folk-mystery shocker has also been hailed as one of 2024’s best horror films since it won the Midnighter section’s audience-award at SXSW in Austin, Texas.
