Red Lights (15)

From the director of Buried, Rodrigo Cortes brings you his new tense supernatural thriller Red Lights


Cortes has assembled an all-star cast as he tackles the fraudulent psychics that contact the supernatural.  The cast is headed by Cillian Murphy (Inception, The Dark Night Rises) and supported by two of the most established greats of acting Sigourney Weaver (Alien, Avatar) and Robert De Niro (Taxi Driver, Goodfellas) - this film echoes quality and talent throughout.


Red Lights follows the work of two sceptical academic scientists, Margaret Matheson (Weaver) and Tom Buckley (Murphy), who have built their careers and studies on exposing the 'red lights' used by fraudulent psychics with their claims of ghost whispering, faith healing and other psychic abilities as they contact the supernatural. When the celebrated and well-known blind psychic Simon Silver (De Niro) comes out of retirement, Buckley sees exposing Silver as his greatest challenge. However, Buckley will learn that spoon bending is only the tip of the iceberg of Silver's talents as mystery, magic and forbidden dangers await him if he is to expose one of the greatest of all time.


Red Lights is a supernatural thriller that will have you mystified and absorbed all the way through.


Critics have labelled the film as:


*Thoroughly watchable, thanks to strong actors who create intriguing characters*

*With this cast and Cortez’s smart directing, Red Lights examines the distance between fakery and reality*
