Brothers Sean (Ryan Vania) and Brim (Dallas Ryan) are tasked with clearing out their deceased grandpa's farmhouse in the middle of nowhere, USA, as their sister Brenda (Chloe Gay Brewer), who has inherited the place, wants to sell it - but has each of her brothers promised a share out of fairness. Thing is, Brim, who has some fond memories of the place, doesn't want her to sell, so he persuades Brenda to put it up to a vote, and whichever Sean votes for at the end of the five days projected for clearing out the place goes. Once Brenda has agreed to this, Brim persuades Sean to stop working on their task at hand and start remniscing - something that would have worked better though if there wasn't so much alcohol involved. As it turns out though, alcohol is the least of the brothers' problems, as there's also the weird, UFO-spotting neighbour (Steve Bilecz), a bluetooth speaker found in front of the house that fascinates the brothers even though it doesn't even work, and of course a pretty girl (Malia Arrayah) that Brim, and later Sean as well, keep on seeing even though she's not there. And after things fall apart more and more, Brun finds himself possessed. And whatever possesses him isn't exactly benign ...

Now this is one weird and rather unique movie indeed. It starts out harmless enough as some sort of buddy comedy that really focuses on conversations between the two brothers, with their sister phasing in and out of the story like some sort of catalyst, but as things go on, the story drifts more and more into triplike territory that finds its standing somewhere between horror, esoteric science fiction and outright surrealism - and somehow this works, even on an obviously modest budget - and actually the lack of funds is what makes this movie work so well as it forced the filmmakers to think on their feet and go with what they've had on hand. That all said, this weird mix does make this film not for everybody - but with an open mind you're in for a unique experience.
