In the summer of 1981, a quiet town was shaken to its very core when an outwardly happy family was brutally massacred. Flash forward over two decades later, and the bloodbath has been all but forgotten by citizens looking to leave the horrors of the past to the history books. Now, as young story editor Elisabeth is drawn to the home and the fallen family members reach out from beyond the grave to tell their tragic tale, the sole survivor of the slaughter sets out to do everything within his power to ensure that the damning truth behind this shocking crime remains buried along with the rest of his ill-fated family members. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

    She sees dead people... the lead is just awful, unscary. SHaig, LEasterbrook, & BMoseley dont help by playing "normal" people either. At Hulu.

    Somebody in a suit said, "Hey, lets take the principal main cast from Rob Zombie's latest hit film, make their characters good and make the villain of the film as little of a threat as possible. For the lead we can get a girl that constantly looks like she has been crying and now... read more market this unscary mess of a film to Liftetime-Television for Women because that's the target audience."
