The Immaculate Room – Sky Cinema
Secrets and private demons emerge when a seemingly-perfect young couple join a psychological experiment to compete for a $5m prize by isolating themselves in an empty white room for 50 days. In this psychological thriller, Michael (Emilie Hirsch) and Kathrine (Kate Bosworth) have no access to phones or family – only the room trying to break their resolve.
As time ticks away, the room becomes more than it seems and puts them through cruel tests designed to break them and resurface their demons which they may not survive.
The Accursed – Sky Cinema
Elly (Sarah Grey) is asked by a family friend (Mena Suvari) to spend a few days looking after an elderly woman (Meg Foster) living in a remote cabin. She agrees thinking a short trip to the woods will be a nice escape, but the cabin turns out to be anything but relaxing as Elly begins hallucinating in ways that blur reality with her dreams.
As the visions take over, Elly realizes she was lured there by a demonic presence hiding inside of the woman just waiting to break free.
