The Deeper You Dig: Limited Edition (Arrow Video, Blu-ray & DVD)
Bogus tarot card reader Ivy (Toby Poser) and her teenage daughter Echo (Zelda Adams) are an unconventional but loving mother/daughter team. But when reclusive Kurt (John Adams) moves in down the road, a tragic accident results in Echo s murder, causing three lives to collide in mysterious and wicked ways. Kurt believes he can hide his secret beneath the earth but Echo, refusing to accept death, burrows into his head until he can feel her in his bones. As she haunts his every move, trying to reach her mother from beyond, Ivy must dig deep to see the signs and prove that love won t stay buried.
A dark, unsettling meditation on grief, survival and the brittle barrier that separates the living from the dead, this limited double-disc edition pairs The Deeper You Dig with John Adams earlier feature The Hatred, making for a compelling double bill of original, independent horror.
