The Dead Room

Friday, April 8 - Thursday, April 14, 2016

Step inside THE DEAD ROOM, where something sinister guards a home’s horrifying secrets. Inspired by a 1970s urban legend, this atmospheric nerve-shredder follows two scientists (Jeffrey Thomas & Jed Brophy) and a young psychic (Laura Petersen) as they travel to the countryside to investigate mysterious goings on at a remote farmhouse. Skepticism quickly turns to terror, as the researchers’ presence unsettles a seriously angry demonic presence possessing the home. Upping the haunted house movie ante with visceral camerawork and unsettling sound-design, THE DEAD ROOM creates a sense of palpable danger lurking in every corner and hallway.
