Matthew Ryan is returning home to his London council estate after months spent in a psychiatric unit following the disappearance of his little brother, Tom. Matthew’s father had left him to look after Tom and he’s still racked by feelings of guilt. He studies a recorded news reconstruction of the abduction and hears his brother’s voice calling out to him for help. Not knowing what is real or imagined, he fears he is losing his mind. Ignored by his alcoholic father, Matthew visits a clairvoyant who reveals an ancient curse and a disturbing history of missing children in the area. While he desperately struggles to put the pieces together and find out who, or what, is taking the children, the hauntings and abductions escalate. As Matthew races closer to the chilling truth, he finds himself entering a dark world from which there is no going back…

Reviews

“The Disappeared was THE film of Frightfest 08, a satisfying experience of sharp and honest dysfunctional dynamics, clammy-palm scares, occult secrets, brooding emotions and environments, escalating into a subterranean fight for life and justice for those beyond physical help.”
