Overview
A woman seemingly dies of fright after participating in a séance where she sees a vision of a Dunwich priest hanging himself in a church cemetery. New York City reporter Peter Bell investigates and learns that the priest's suicide has somehow opened a portal to Hell and must be sealed by All Saints Day, or else the dead will overtake humanity.

How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A hallucinatory descent into grotesque cosmic horror where the boundary between life and death becomes horrifyingly permeable. Expect visceral shocks and a pervasive sense of inevitability layered with surreal, nightmarish imagery.
