An expert at sleight of hand and with a keen eye for identifying charlatans and tricksters, our story begins as Harry has fallen on hard times in recent years, professionally and ethically losing his way. He’s resorted to making his living as a fake medium and fraudulent ghost hunter, conducting séances for unsuspecting families who think their lives have been made a misery by ghostly mischief making. Harry’s duplicitous lifestyle has also had serious consequences when after leading a séance for a tragic soldier a young man commits suicide on the doorstep of Harry’s home. A couple of months later, Harry is offered the chance to investigate the haunting of a local MP’s home as the case threatens to ruin the politician’s reputation. With the prospects of leading his political party, Edward Curtis can ill-afford the scandal as his wife Grace begins to hallucinate and act bizarrely and very much out of character as she believes their family home to be haunted. There’s a possibility Grace may be committed to an asylum in scandalous circumstances if Harry doesn’t take on the investigation. Ghosts from Harry’s past influence his decision to take the case and he begins to think it might be time to take a new path. Together with the Curtis family maid, Sarah Grey, whose own mother has fallen prey to con artist mediums in the past, their detection and investigative skills complement one another and they make a formidable partnership. Smart, driven and open-minded, Sarah is a strong-minded woman who can handle herself when unravelling the mysteries behind the hauntings, which are seriously affecting Grace’s health and well-being. Harry also calls on the services of his old friend, Albert, during the investigation. An African pharmacist with a sideline in voodoo con-artistry, Albert has a keen interest in medical and scientific discoveries, which Harry exploits to the maximum. Journalist Vernon Wall also finds himself in Harry’s orbit. Cynical and hard-bitten, although clever at winning the trust of the people he’s interviewing, Vernon is keen to learn about Harry’s techniques and sensing a political scandal sets out to inveigle his way into his life by extracting information from Sarah.
一位深夜的电台脱口秀节目主持人决定他厌倦了讲故事和采访人们。他打开电话排队,直接听到马歇尔敦居民的故事。夜间谈话者是一本微型恐怖选集,其中比尔·莫斯利(Bill Moseley)是深夜广播主持人,招募了听众的奇怪故事。像市场上的大多数电影(微型恐怖片)一样,观众也有一个混合的袋子。“ Gruenwald House”很容易成为三个主要故事中最好的,但受到大型演员和欠发达的故事的阻碍。但是,珍娜·鲁伊斯(Jenna Ruiz)和布列塔尼·史密斯(Brittany Smith)的表演使观众参与其中。在SFX艺术家兼面具制造商的“后国” Scott Blake中,刻画了一个近乎杂种的Hillbilly,让人联想到Crypt Keeper的出色表现,但这个故事最终是一次跳跃恐慌的漫长尝试。同样,音频和摄影是一个混合的袋子。例如,该作品本可以使用搬运工毯子,甚至可以使用沉重的棉被来抑制通过房屋场景听到的一些回声/混响。总体而言,显然为Bill Moseley的细分市场节省了最大的努力。正是在那一刻,我们看到了导演Topher Chambers的大部分创造力,这就是为什么这部电影即使在7点也令人沮丧的原因。由于这部电影仅列出了Chambers作为导演,因此观众期望在制作过程中会有更多的凝聚力。无论是相机移动还是图像图案,甚至只是专注于演员,每个短片都感觉到它是通过完全不同的生产来完成的,尤其是与Bill Moseley的包裹相比。尽管如此,这仍然是Topher Chambers和Rutledge作品的略有改进,这是黑皮书(由多个作品创造的)选集,这最终就是为什么它值得获得7的原因。看到艺术家成长总是令人鼓舞。

Lucjan is a theatre actor whose health is failing. He forgets his lines on stage and feels confused and out of place in his daily life. He decides to end his acting career and soon winds up in a nursing home. In this new place, the elderly man misses his late wife. He starts having nightmares that seem to become real. In one of them, he discovers a passage into a magical world deceptively similar to his theatre. Lucjan starts living in two parallel dimensions – real life and the fairy tale – that become increasingly dependent on each other and intertwined. His immersion in the imaginary world leads to an unexpected ending. A bittersweet treatise on passing. The fairy-tale world Lucjan creates is not so much a metaphor for death as a symbolic reconciliation to its coming.
