Something Weird

In a bleak Midwestern town where everyday routine hums beneath a thin veil of the uncanny, Cronin Mitchell survives a violent electrical accident that leaves his face scarred and his senses forever altered. The shock awakens a latent form of extra‑sensory perception, prompting a pair of skeptical physicians to run experiments that hint at something beyond ordinary trauma. Isolated by his disfigurement, he retreats into anonymity, masking himself with dark sunglasses and a scarf while quietly offering private readings that hint at a world just beyond the visible.

A chance encounter with a strange, weathered tome summons an unexpected visitor: a grotesque witch who offers a bargain. In exchange for becoming her lover, she restores Mitchell’s lost visage in an instant, sealing a pact that blurs the line between salvation and surrender. The promise of normalcy is shadowed by the arrival of Ellen Parker, a captivating woman whose allure masks a deeper, more unsettling connection to the witch’s ancient power, setting the stage for an obsessive and perilous romance.

Drawn by his uncanny abilities, a no‑nonsense government operative, Alex Jordan, arrives to enlist Mitchell’s help in a series of investigations that have baffled local authorities. Alongside seasoned detectives, Mitchell’s psychic insights become a tentative bridge between the supernatural and the procedural, forcing him to navigate the uneasy alliance between his newfound gifts, his precarious personal bargain, and the demands of a system that doubts his sanity.

The film drifts through a feverish, surreal landscape where love, power, and the uncanny intertwine. Its tone is simultaneously gritty and ethereal, echoing the protagonist’s torn identity—part wounded survivor, part reluctant conduit for forces beyond comprehension. As Mitchell teeters between redemption and damnation, the story invites viewers to linger in the uneasy space where ordinary lives are haunted by extraordinary, unspoken pacts.
