Kiwi filmmaker Gerard Johnstone’s debut feature snagged him the gig directing M3GAN, convincing producer James Wan that he had the chops necessary to balance both horror and comedy. Off the back of that, it’s now been revived for digital.

Written, directed and edited by Johnstone, it follows Kylie (Morgana O’Reilly), a malcontent with drug issues who, after a disastrous attempt to robhalfway house for troubled youth) could be haunted – a girl was brutally murdered there. Kylie may be the sort of protagonist who blithely takes a door off its hinges when it starts eerily creaking, but eventually even she’s unnerved.
