    Great independent movie

    If a fast paced action movie is what you are looking for well this movie is not for you, but if you are wanting something to have a slow burn and make you think then this is the movie for you, This takes you by the hand and leads you in to a twisted psychological journey down a rabbit hole of love, regret and psychological torture then it hits out another twist. Absolutely brilliant independent Scottish movie.

    I have worked with two of the cast before (Adam Robertson & Lorraine Hudson) both are a pleasure to work with but as for their acting skills hats off to them and the other cast members..

    Great twist

    Thoroughly enjoyed this movie, from the performances to the authentic story line.

    I thought it was clever using both an unusual medical condition and also delving into the world of spiritualism.

    I could even tell that the medium featured on screen was a real one, from the terminology they used (I visited a spiritualist church back in the day).

    The ending was also a surprise, that I simply did not see coming. All in all it is a clever little film which has achieved a lot from what was clearly a meagre budget.

    Well done to all involved - but I would now like to see what the creators would do with a decent budget. I would definitely watch more work from this team in the future.

    Give this a watch!!

    What a great movie. It was beautifully simple and a very good storyline. I loved that this was inspired by a true story - of course this peaked my interest from the outset. Very thrilling and absolutely exceeded my expectations. I found myself trying to figure out where the story was going and the twists and turns just cleverly fed into it. I don't want to give anything away, but would say just watch it with an open mind. Nearly fell off the couch at one twist as was definitely not expected and sadly almost clapped at another! It's not jump scary but creepy scary. Thoroughly enjoyed it and I will watch it again!

    • Trivia
      This story, although fictional, is based on an encounter that writer/director Mark MacNicol's mother had with a spiritualist medium. The medium, a complete stranger to Mark's mother, approached Mrs. MacNicol and said they had a message from her oldest child, a daughter named Angela who was born about a year before Mark, but passed away shortly after delivery. The message from Angela was to let Mark know that he had a big sister and guardian angel in the spirit world.
