Unhinged

In the quiet stretch between city and countryside, four American friends set off on a road‑trip to a wedding in England, their car packed with laughter, music, and the promise of celebration. The journey—marked by rolling hills, mist‑kissed lanes and a sense of carefree adventure—quickly veers off the expected route when a narrow, winding back road tempts them with the allure of a shortcut. The detour feels both spontaneous and oddly fated, drawing the group deeper into a landscape that grows increasingly isolated as the daylight wanes.

Soon, an unexpected incident forces the friends to abandon their vehicle and press onward on foot through dense woodland, the trees closing in around them like silent witnesses. The atmosphere shifts from light‑hearted travel to uneasy suspense, each rustle and distant call amplifying the feeling of being untethered from the world they left behind. The woods seem to hold their breath, and the friends find themselves stranded in a place where the familiar comforts of home feel far removed.

Amid the looming shadows they discover a modest, weather‑worn house that appears almost magically poised on a clearing. Its doors open to welcome them, and they are greeted by the enigmatic Miss Perkins, a woman whose gentle demeanor and seemingly warm hospitality provide a momentary respite. Her presence is both soothing and uncanny, hinting at layers of history hidden behind the home’s cosy façade.

Yet the house and its surroundings exude an undercurrent of something unnerving, a subtle disquiet that suggests all is not as benign as it first appears. As the friends settle in, the quiet tension thickens, inviting them—and the audience—to wonder what secrets linger behind the curtains and in the darkened corners of the garden. The film promises a slow‑burning exploration of trust, fear, and the unknown, set against a backdrop where every creak and whisper may signal a deeper, more chilling truth waiting to be uncovered.
