Deadline (2009)

In the chilling folds of Deadline (2009), we meet Alice, a 32-year-old writer teetering on the edge of a psychological precipice. In a bid to heal and harness her creativity, she retreats to an isolated Victorian manor, a place meant to be a sanctuary for her troubled mind and a haven for her unwritten screenplay, as the clock ticks ominously towards a looming deadline. Soon after her arrival, the serene silence of the house is shattered by uncanny noises and peculiar occurrences that set her imagination ablaze, igniting a relentless and spine-chilling pursuit to uncover the truth hiding behind these eerie mind games. Fear grips her, but curiosity proves to be a stronger force, impelling Alice to explore the shadowed corners of the manor. In the cold, gloomy attic, Alice stumbles upon a shoe box, its ordinary exterior belying the chilling contents within – a collection of mini-DV tapes. As she delves into the recorded horrors, she's plunged into a terrifying journey that threatens to unravel her own dark past. The secrets lurking within these tapes promise more than just conventional fear, they're a window into a past shrouded in mystery and dread.
