Dreams of the Dead (2007)
For 15 years the large estate of Samuel Arnold has stood silent and empty. But like a midwinter's breeze, in the lonely hours of the night, something stirs in both the dreams and reality, unable to find any peace. When Aubrey, last of the family line and leader of an all-girl band, moves her band into the house, the lurking horror of her family's true legacy reveals itself as she fights desperately to find the truth and reject her dark inheritance.

It's no definitive masterpiece but it's damn close.
Fantastic!
The performances transcend the film's tropes, grounding it in characters that feel more complete than this subgenre often produces.
It is an exhilarating, distressing, funny and profound film, with one of the more memorable film scores in years,
DREAMS OF THE DEAD and THE HAUNTING OF DANBURY HOUSE are the same film. It includes a pseudo history. Samuel Arnold, a mad hatter, murdered two girls and was never caught. Now their ghosts haunt the house, but they aren't that scary since one them doesn't wear clothes. Did they have thong underwear a 100 years ago? Descendant Aubrey Arnold (Cathy Loch) is a singer and songwriter and wants to hold a recording session in the house against the wishes of her father. Ghosts? yes. Scary? No. In fact there is a scene where they all sit around the table and discuss the house that lasts way way too long. Sound is choppy. They filmed in the rain and it sounds like they simply put a plastic bag around the microphone to annoyingly magnify the raindrops. Available on multi-packs.Filmed in Allentown, Pa.Guide: No sex. Nudity (Catherine Loch, Catherine A. Sheedy- also the hair stylist and boom operator)
