The premise
Following a terrible car crash, a woman awakes to find an enigmatic mortician preparing her for burial.
Horror Vault's take
When Anna wakes up on a mortician's table after a devastating car accident, she finds herself at the mercy of the quietly menacing Eliot Deacon — a funeral director who insists she is dead and beyond saving. Trapped in a limbo between the living and the departed, Anna must confront whether she is truly gone or desperately fighting to reclaim her life. The film weaponizes ambiguity, keeping viewers guessing about what is real, what is imagined, and who — if anyone — can be trusted. It's a slow-burn psychological ordeal anchored by a fearless performance from Christina Ricci and an ice-cold turn from Liam Neeson.
