Reviews
"Dean Garris’ short film manages to lay some solid psychological track with the family before things get spooky, and in an 18 minute short, that is impressive."
~Mark Bell, Film Threat Magazine
"Dean Garris shows here that he has a knack for cinematic storytelling, no matter what the tools at his disposal are."
