About this movie:

The plot follows a group of characters who are struggling to make sense of an eccentric young boy’s unusual behavior. The boy named Craig befriends an elderly man known as Mr. Harrigan and gives him a cellphone so that they can stay in touch with each other when their busy schedules don’t allow for much interaction.  When Mr. Harrigan dies he keeps his smartphone in Mr. Harrigan’s pocket and when he starts missing him, leaves a calling note on the old man’s number and surprisingly gets a callback. This is a horror start of the film and the story from here revolves around the communication between these two friends. The old man horrifyingly completes his work with the help of Craig.

Why should you watch this film?

The film is purely entertaining and will leave you wanting more. As a bonus, the film is set to release on Netflix this summer, giving you plenty of time to finish it over the long summer break.

What makes this film more interesting?

This film is a perfect example of how a film can be entertaining, engaging, and enthralling, while also inspiring thought through its concept. It’s not all about fantasy gore or questionable scares. It’s about creating characters that are fully formed and engaging with you as an audience member to immerse yourself within their unique situations.
