The friendship between respective founders, Anton Newcombe and Courtney Taylor, escalated into bitter rivalry as the Dandy Warhols achieved major international success while the Brian Jonestown Massacre imploded in a haze of drugs, band in-fighting and unchecked egotism. find out more...

It's the end of WW2 and highly strung Grace and her two photosensitive children are awaiting the return of her husband. Grace lives an isolated and twilght existence but after the arrival of three uninvited servants she becomes convinced that the house is haunted by malevolent spirits.
