The Skeptic
L'avvocato Bryan Becket vive la propria vita con freddo distacco. Niente e nessuno riesce a turbarlo, nemmeno la moglie, che gli chiede più tempo e impegno nella loro relazione. Ma quando l'avida e anziana zia muore misteriosamente, Bryan (scettico su qualunque argomento abbia a che fare con religione e sopranaturale) decide di trasferirsi nella casa della defunta, scoprendola infestata. Dovrà quindi ricorrere alla consulenza di un professore di fenomeni paranormali e di una bella e giovane medium...

Production
Writer and director Tennyson Bardwell . Mary-Beth Taylor, was one of the film producers, along with Bardwell himself, Isen Robbins, and Aimee Schoof.
Shooting began in 2005, with eight weeks spent filming in various locations around the Saratoga Springs, New York area – including the city Court House, the Olde Bryan Inn, the Union Gables Bed and Breakfast as well as Union College in nearby Schenectady, The Batcheller Mansion Inn was used for the three-story Victorian mansion where much of the film takes place.
In creating the film, in a markedly different genre from his first work, the 2004 comedy Dorian Blues, Bardwell aimed to create a film that would be "a Rorschach test for people's beliefs", in which viewers would have different ideas of what happened.
