When a household with Lucy Liu as Rebekah and troubled teenage daughter Chloe occupies their new suburban house, the filming device – representing the ghost – follows them around.

Yet the disconnected phone mounted nearby repeatedly calls, with spooky callers providing assistance, and the intuitive nightmares of Gwen, his sister could save him. A solid creepfest.

This Dramatic Portrait
In the battle between spirituality and money, the victory is clear for Mammon in Showalter's wonderfully garish true story of the disgraced TV preacher plus her lawbreaking partner.

It's a spectacle of poor styling, excessive cosmetics and bad faith, however Chastain succeeds to show Tammy Faye as a sympathetic figure. Tuesday 14 October, early morning, the Film4 channel
