A struggling screenwriter seeking solace in a remote, dilapidated farmhouse finds her sanity unraveling in this chilling psychological thriller. Britanny Murphy stars as Alice, a woman haunted by a recent personal tragedy who retreats to the countryside to finish her latest script and escape her demons. But the house holds its own ghosts, and as she begins to uncover a series of disturbing secrets tied to a previous occupant, she is haunted by terrifying visions and an eerie, unrelenting presence. Her fragile grip on reality is further tested when she crosses paths with a mysterious woman (played by Thora Birch) and her unsettling brother, whose motives remain shrouded in ambiguity. Directed by Sean McConville, Deadline masterfully blends supernatural dread with psychological torment, creating an atmosphere thick with suspense and paranoia. As Alice desperately tries to separate fact from fiction, the line between her imagination and a horrifying truth becomes dangerously blurred, leading to a tense and unpredictable battle for her very sanity.
