Jill (writer/director Marianna Palka), a lonely, unfulfilled housewife with four unruly children, paces on her dining room table with a belt around her neck, contemplating a desperate end. Her husband, Bill (Jason Ritter, in a beautifully tragicomic performance), focused on his identity as breadwinner and an affair with a lusty co-worker, is as oblivious to Jill’s growing terror that she will do something destructive as he is to the panic at his unraveling company. Meanwhile, dogs bark and howl through the night, as one persistent mutt continually stalks the family’s yard. When Jill’s psyche finally breaks, she takes on a vicious new canine persona.

Dark and provocative, BITCH balances a whip-smart, deeply unsettling take on the horrors of a crumbling nuclear family with a palpable sensitivity to its characters and perfectly timed comedic flourishes.

After surviving a near-fatal accident, track coach and mother Dana (Shauna Macdonald, The Descent) awakens in a hospital, paralyzed and imprisoned in her own body. While struggling to regain control of her life, Dana is confronted with a vindictive spirit; a terrifying presence called Nails, whom she is convinced exists inside her hospital room. Faced with skepticism from her husband, doctors and the staff, Dana is left struggling to keep her grip on reality as the targeted attacks grow increasingly violent.  Now to save her marriage and her life, Dana must find a way to convince her family that Nails is real before he succeeds in destroying her and everyone who stands in his way.

From the executive producer of Assault on Precinct 13 and the award-winning producers of The Hallow and Let Us Prey, NAILS is a terrifyingly claustrophobic thriller where evil lurks never more than an arm’s length away.
