This entry in the perennially popular teen horror genre is from writer/director
Steve Carpenter and the producers of
I Know What You Did Last Summer (1997) and
Urban Legend (1998).
Melissa Sagemiller stars as
Cassie, a college freshman trying to get over the death of her boyfriend
Sean (
Casey Affleck) in an auto accident. Making matters worse is that ever since the car crash, which also nearly claimed her own life,
Cassie has seemed to hover in a netherworld between the living and the dead, where she believes she's hallucinating some spooky, emotional visitations from
Sean. In the meantime, she's also coming under the sway of her mysterious friends
Matt (
Wes Bentley) and
Annabel (
Eliza Dushku) as well as an androgynous acquaintance (
Angela Featherstone) of theirs. Unsure whom she can trust,
Cassie turns for aid to an enigmatic young priest,
Father Jude (
Luke Wilson), but the ultimate truth about her condition and state of mind may come as a shocking revelation.
