Alone

Jonathan MacKinlay is a man trapped inside his home by his own mind. Suffering from agoraphobia, caused by a car accident that took his wife's life; his existence has been reduced to a monotonous repetition of identical days. As his dread and self-loathing escalate, an onslaught of gruesome visions and twisted, waking nightmares begins to gnaw away at his last shred of sanity. Are these ghastly visions imaginary, private demons...or is he being victimized by a very real entity of infinite terror and unspeakable evil?

Directed by Rory Douglas Abel, Alone leans on a strong ensemble — Michael Jefferson, Emma Dubery, Sarah Schoofs — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.

The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about horror titles of 2013.
