Release Date:

Fifteen year old Adam McCormick's life hasn't been the same since classmate Gracie Highsmith found Jamie Marks’s dead body at the edge of the river. The town is shocked, but as speculation swirls, it becomes clear that they knew as little about Jamie as they do about the circumstances surrounding his death. Adam becomes fixated on Jamie's death and gradually a deep bond develops between the living teenager and the dead boy's ghost. Their unlikely friendship provides Adam with the support and friendship he needs as the rest of the world falls apart. But the more attached Adam becomes to Jamie's ghost, the weaker his ties to reality become. As he struggles with the real world relationships, Adam is forced to rediscover what it means to be alive.

A bittersweet story of regret, loss, and redemption

This film succeeds in many ways; it tells a unique story that is haunting and relatable. There is always that one person we wish we would have spoken to, perhaps changing their life in ways we could not have ever anticipated, and seeing this scenario play out in this movie was as sad as it was uplifting. At times scary, and other times suspenseful, the subject matter is a very serious thing, and it could not have been handled in a more thoughtful manner. There are too many lives lost at the hands of bullying, and I hope that this film helps people see just how their actions and words might negatively affect those around them. As llid effort by a very talented cast. These teens are really a very special group of actors, and I hope to see them again soon.


Loved this movie

The story itself is a beautiful balance between melancholy and sweetness. Carter Smith did an amazing job along with cinematographer Darren Lew and a very talented cast. It definitely lived up to it's genre of "thriller". I would recommend this movie to all of my friends.


Great Movie

Awesome performance between Cameron Monaghan and Noah Silver! Definitely a beautiful story worth watching.


Beautiful And Brilliant

Such great mood is created in this film. Such beautiful images.


Haunting and poignant

Honestly, don't bother if you are seeking out a bloody scare. This ghost movie is more about profound loneliness and the haunting need to be known and remembered.
