Slumber Party
Synopsis
Wooed by the possibility of big time stardom, Aussie girl group, The Sheila's, are persuaded by Simon and Keith to stay overnight in the UK's most haunted house as part of a charity stunt. The event is filmed live and is linked to a studio debate. The usual TV 'experts' are assembled - physic, shaman, psychologist, historian and ghost hunter - in the studio to watch the action in the haunted house and debate the ethics of such a fundraising campaign. As a publicity stunt it was a brilliant idea, but no-one bargained for the fact that the house really is haunted and the studio panel plus a national audience watch the events unfold with unpredictable and catastrophic consequences.
Half of the movie was filmed in a haunted house in Suffolk, England, and much of what was shot was unexpected, alarming and makes very compelling viewing.

Rhona, a shy teenager stuck on her family’s farm, has a secret: she’s head-over-heels infatuated with celebrity crush Céline. Between endless chores, an overbearing father who can’t stay out of her room, and the chaotic interruptions of barnyard animals, Rhona can barely find a moment of privacy to explore her budding desires. Unfortunately for Rhona, the farm’s chaos - goats, chickens, and her dad’s ill-timed interruptions - makes finding privacy nearly impossible. As her desire to explore her newfound feelings grows, so does her frustration with the farm’s constant meddling. In a series of hilariously awkward and tender moments, Rhona struggles to carve out a space for herself while her father fumbles with how to help her grow up. Life on the farm may be unpredictable, but Rhona is determined to make her moment happen - no matter how many chickens end up in her bed.
