From the start, two things are clear: Indy is wary of the creepy old house, and his affection for Todd is unwavering. After moving in, Indy is immediately vexed by empty corners, tracks an invisible presence only he can see, perceives phantasmagoric warnings from a long-dead dog, and is haunted by visions of the previous occupant’s grim death. When Todd begins succumbing to the dark forces swirling around the house, Indy must battle a malevolence intent on dragging his beloved Todd into the afterlife. Ben Leonberg makes his feature directorial debut from a script he co-wrote with Alex Cannon. Leonberg’s own dog, Indy, stars alongside Shane Jensen, Arielle Friedman, and Larry Fessenden.
