This February, you’ll be taking your traditional (?) school break with Dead Air, as we discuss the 2015 film; The Blackcoats Daughter!

At a prestigious Catholic boarding school, students Kat and Rose are staying behind while the rest of their piers and teachers are going away for a week long break.

There is a foreboding presence among them, and as the time passes on Kat’s behavior becomes far more bizarre and Rose is getting the sneaking suspicion that she is no longer safe.

Meanwhile, a mysterious woman named Joan is traveling to the school after escaping a mental institution, she happens upon a kindly married couple also heading there and as all of these stories converge, the term “heads will roll” definitely applies.

Soon, they discover that an elderly woman serves as the old lodges caretaker. As the night grows cold, all is not well.
