A vibe of true horror coupled with the dank sense of uncertainty. Fact can be stranger and more terrifying than fiction. Medical student Lucy, suffering from sleep paralysis, finds herself plagued by a demonic entity after moving in with her boyfriend. Torn between sanity and the unknown, Lucy seeks help from a local priest forced to make a deathly choice. With the clock ticking, will Lucy escape the dark force consuming her from inside? Actor-turned-writer/director Leroy Kincaide makes his accomplished feature debut with a stark supernatural horror, one inspired by Kincaide’s own real-life paranormal experiences.
