The acclaimed paranormal thriller follows a young woman from New York City who travels to Los Angeles to check on the well-being of her estranged brother, who is being held in a psychiatric ward for the murder of his parents. While in LA she finds herself consumed by a mysterious spirit who turns out to be none other than Elizabeth Short, known in legend as THE BLACK DAHLIA.

Hall (Syfy’s Monster Man, Dead.tv), Noah Dahl (Bad Teacher, Mr. and Mrs. Smith), Alexis Iacono (Blue Caprice, Prescott Place), Jessica Cameron (Silent Night, Truth or Dare), and Sarah Nicklin (The Disco Exorcist, 27 Dresses). The film was written and directed by Brandon Slagle, who also wrote and directed last year’s found footage science fiction feature Area 51 Confidential and appeared as an actor in films such as Argo and Patient Zero.

The VOD and PPV release will continue through the film’s DVD and Blu-ray release the following month, during which it will begin expanding to retail stores and Redbox.
