SYNOPSIS
On a dark and stormy night, Anne arrives home to find the power out and her front door left unlocked. She asks her boyfriend, Jeff, to stay on the phone with her while she safety checks the house and gets the power back on. When she expresses her fear that she is not alone in the house and feels unsafe, Jeff tells her she is overreacting and dismisses her concerns, telling her she consumes too much true crime. Unable to find an intruder she accepts what Jeff has told her –that she is safe in the house. But is she? Or were her instincts right all along?
DIRECTOR STATEMENT
Like many women, I love the horror genre. I love to go on a spooky ride and watch characters battle demons, real and imagined. I wish there were more horror films made for women, that spoke to women's fears more specifically, and so that is what I aim to do with this film. I would like to acknowledge that women are always aware of the potential danger that exists all around us all the time. We have been trained to look for signs of impending attacks by men. We should trust our instincts and inner voices, and not concede to those telling us we are hysterical or overreacting. We know better than they do how to save ourselves. I hope this film reflects that sentiment.
