The Skeptic
Directed by Tennyson Bardwell
A psychological haunted-house thriller that pits rational skepticism against mounting supernatural dread, anchored by a protagonist's unsettling personal connection to the house's dark past.
After the mysterious death of his Aunt, a confirmed skeptic lawyer, Bryan Becket, dismisses reports that her house is haunted and moves in. Immediately occurrences begin he cannot explain. And beyond the occurrences there is something about the house which gnaws at Becket - some strange connection he senses he has with the house's past. Soon, the haunting turns personal.
