What is The Calling about? Toggle content

In the sleepy town of Fort Dundas, Detective Hazel Micallef is faced with a gruesome series of murders that shake the community to its core. As she investigates, she discovers that each victim's mouth is twisted into a grotesque scream, and the word "libera" is carved into their flesh. With the help of a local priest, Hazel uncovers the sinister truth behind the murders: a serial killer is on the loose, driven by a twisted religious belief that requires the sacrifice of 12 willing souls to raise the dead. As Hazel races against time to stop the killer, she uncovers a web of deceit and poison that threatens to consume her own life. With the help of her deputy Ben Wingate, she tracks down Simon, an enigmatic figure who is using an online forum for terminal patients to select his victims. But as the body count rises, Hazel realizes that Simon's true target may be closer than she thinks. Will she be able to stop him before it's too late? The Calling is a gripping thriller that will keep you on the edge of your seat until the very end. With its dark and foreboding atmosphere, this movie will haunt you long after the credits roll.
