Sauls Pupils (2002) [full movie] DS 2022-03-06 | It's not a good idea to anger Death, especially if you're a demon. Saul is forced to walk in human guise, deprived of his powers. To regain his former status, he is given the task of stealing three human souls without killing their bodies - an impossible enterprise, such is Death's sense of humour. But what if a human could be persuaded to help? They are, after all, quite capable of murder, given the right motivation.© 2002 Midnight Pictures.

Dont Look in the Attic (2005) [full movie] DS 2021-11-01 | Claire Watson, an independent young woman, was lucky enough to be able to purchase her own house. She has lived there alone and at peace for six years. Then one night the noises begin – the scampering of little rodent feet above her head. Not one for crawling around in dark, dusty attics, Claire opens the Yellow Pages and leaves it to the experts. But before the pest control people arrive, the rats are on the prowl again, and they don’t sound friendly. In fact, they don’t sound like rats at all.© 2005 Midnight Pictures.
