About this movie

Sutter Cane (Jurgen Prochnow, The Seventh Sign) is the best-selling author whose newest novel is literally driving readers insane. When he inexplicably vanishes, his publisher (Academy Award® winner Charlton Heston*) sends special investigator John Trent (Sam Neill, Jurassic Park, Dead Calm) to track him down. Drawn to a town that exists only in Cane’s books, Trent crosses the barrier between fact and fiction and enters a terrifying world from which there is no escape. Inspired by the tales of H.P. Lovecraft, this shocking story is, in the words of its acclaimed director, “horror beyond description!”

Ratings and reviews

The film is dated in a good way. You can't help but feel brought back to the late 80's to early 90's watching it. Seems like the best that this genre had to offer at the time was tossed into it as well. The plot is sophisticated and I can place my mind into the same state as when I'm reading a novel. The only thing it lacks is character depth. You won't find yourself relating to them. In this one, you're just meant to be a spectator. Enjoy the show.

Its one of those old classic physiological thriller tones but begins mixing with supernatural backing. add I think therefore you are and see its! already started to happen your going mad and co co for something just kidding its good the actors and the storyline but does get nerve racking which is worth watching

Did not work, took my money then decided the movie didnt have a license to play but took my money any way. Will not be buying from playstore again
