Descriere: Tilly Parker struggles through work and her mother's watchful eye while dealing with her husband's recent suicide, when on accident, she finds she can circumvent the grief by dialing his cell phone and leaving him endearing messages. This false hope, this unhealthy progression mounts to obsession, until one day, instead of getting a voicemail, something answers on the other side, something beyond what we see, something old, and something hungry. Now, plagued by grisly manifestations and a sleepy backwards town that is more than just small-minded attitudes and cornfields, Tilly must now face her dead husband's life-threatening past and battle the monsters he couldn't anymore.
