About
Four successful elderly gentlemen, members of the Chowder Society, share a gruesome, 50-year-old secret. When one of Edward Wanderley's twin sons dies in a bizarre accident, the group begins to see a pattern of frightening events developing.
The legendary Fred Astaire trades his rhythmic grace for a chilling, quiet dread that haunts every frame. This slow-burning ghost story turns a quiet gathering of old friends into a claustrophobic nightmare of long-buried guilt.
