In the film, starring “Supernatural’s” Julian Richings and Sheila McCarthy (Die Hard 2) as well as Konstantina Mantelos (A Christmas Crush), Josh Cruddas (Polar), and Yannick Bisson (Another Wolfcop), “after losing their only grandchild in a car accident, an elderly couple kidnaps a pregnant woman to perform a reverse exorcism in order to bring him back to life.” Canadian filmmaker Justin G.
