“Terror gets domesticated.”

HorrorComedyThriller

When Kylie Bucknell is sentenced to home detention, she's forced to come to terms with her unsociable behaviour, her blabbering mother and a hostile spirit who seems less than happy about the new living arrangement.

VIBE

This film feels like a delightfully twisted haunted house experience, blending genuine chills with a dry, offbeat humor. It's a claustrophobic and unsettling ride, punctuated by unexpected laughs and a pervasive sense of unease. Expect a quirky, character-driven supernatural mystery with a distinctly macabre charm.
