A new UK quad one-sheet for the Nicholas McCarthy spooker The Pact (review here) has hit the interwebs, and it’s very reminiscent of the antics of The Frighteners and everyone’s favorite dream maniac.

Look for the flick in limited release on July 6th here in the States and on June 8th in the UK.

The Pact centers on a woman who returns home to attend her mother’s funeral only to feel something strange and unsettling in the house she grew up in. Caity Lotz and Casper Van Dien star.

The project is based on a short film McCarthy screened at the 2011 Sundance fest.

Synopsis
After their mother passes away, sisters Nicole and Annie reluctantly return to their childhood home to pay their last respects. While staying overnight in the house, the sisters sense a mysterious presence in their midst: noises startling them in the night, objects moving about, a fallen picture of an unknown woman posed next to their mother. Annie begins experiencing a series of intense and disturbing dreams – visions that lead her to uncover something terrible about her mother’s past that is finally revealing itself.
