To the outside world looking in, Jack’s not well. Brooding, disheveled, troubled, he’s been in and out of secure units all of his young life, had every drug they can think of, every treatment they can throw at him but nothing seems to work. Not because he doesn’t want it to, there’s nothing he’d like more than to live a normal life and be left alone. But as far as Jack is concerned there’s nothing wrong with him, it’s them - the dead - they’re the ones who won’t leave him alone. <br /> Edinburgh International Film Festival 2015 - World premiere

Darren Daniels is a handsome, charismatic and deeply insincere television presenter whose hit show 'Tabloid TV' uncovers the darkest secrets of even the most virtuous celebrity guest. Such is the kudos of the show, that despite these personal revelations, star guests keep coming.<br /> <br /> Life is wonderful, the show's ratings are high, until one fateful night when Darren is introduced to malevolent criminal Vince, and is encouraged to take part in a kinky sex game with two stunning glamour models. The tables are finally turned and the joke is on Darren, who cannot escape the skeletons in his own cupboard.
