"Either by direct action, or conscious inaction, I have something to do with everyone's death," says the man in Interrogation Room 4, and he might actually be telling the truth. After a gruesome multiple murder, Dean McCallum, a seemingly good and decent man, walks into a cafe covered in blood. Brought in for questioning, detectives Jared Lamb and Reina Herrera begin a series of interrogations to determine if McCallum is a psychopath, serial killer or suffering from multiple personalities. Yet McCallum's increasingly bizarre and unsettling comments, his paranormal awareness of things unknowable to him, and disturbing peripheral occurrences, suggest there may be otherworldly influences. Now they must determine if McCallum could be possessed by demons, be the Devil himself, or if there is something even more shocking to consider. Once the truth is revealed, everything they believe in will be questioned and the foundations of their very reality will be shaken.

Zander T This is exactly what I keep hoping to stumble on when I take chances on low budget independent films - especially thrillers! If you don't have the money for explosions and massive set-pieces than instead give us challenging ideas and a well-crafted script to compensate. It must be said at the top this is truly a unique movie; depending on what you like in movies that could be a great thing or a bad thing. If you'd rather watch any Star Wars clone instead of 2001: A Space Odyssey, then this probably won't be your cup of tea. If you don't like movies that make you think about things, especially personal beliefs, this ain't your flick. This movie will make you start asking questions, even if you never thought to before. It's a super low budget - but it doesn't always seem like it. A complex story that never treats viewers like idiots - if anything it sometimes makes you work hard to keep up - but I personally love complex films. Things go from mysterious to weird, but not off the wall, lazy out-of-left-field weird, and a second viewing might prove we should have seen it coming from the start. The film subtly changes direction several times and there is a shocking revelation at about the halfway point, and from then on it really demands you put your thinking cap on! From there, until an almost 2001 type ending, the movie goes someplace I was surprised it dared to go. There's a stretch in the middle that might take a little patience to get through for some folks but it's worth it for the climax, and it's also probably going to be the part you keep thinking about after the movie is over. I personally didn't mind it because I enjoyed the clever dialogue. A really challenging script. It's in a completely different league than most super low budget films made by people you've never heard of. The kind of film no studio would have ever dared to make.
