SYNOPSIS:

PORCELAIN Supernatural Psychological Horror / Murder Mystery / Gothic Thriller — Feature Ten years ago, John, Kate, CJ, and Chris made a decision that has haunted every one of them since: they buried their friend Emily alive and walked away. They've spent a decade building separate lives on top of that silence until an invitation pulls them back together at a secluded house none of them can quite remember agreeing to visit. What waits for them isn't just each other. The house is filled with voodoo-marked porcelain dolls, each one tied to a truth they buried alongside Emily. As the night unfolds, the dolls force confession after confession old resentments, hidden guilt, the real reason Emily ended up in that ground. But the house doesn't just want the truth told. It wants it paid for. One by one, as their empathy erodes under the weight of what they finally admit to each other, the friends begin to physically turn to porcelain frozen, hollow, complicit forever. By dawn, only the truth will decide who leaves human, and who becomes another doll in the house's collection.
