Terrified (film)

Terrified (Spanish: Aterrados) is a 2017 Argentine horror film written and directed by Demián Rugna, concerning a series of supernatural events in a neighbourhood of Buenos Aires.

That night, awakened by thumping sounds, Juan is terrified to find Clara's dead body hovering in midair in their bathroom, repeatedly slamming against the wall as if thrown by an invisible force.

When he uses a video camera to film the events, he sees a tall, naked figure emerging from beneath the bed, standing over him as he sleeps, and hiding in the wardrobe.

Jano sees the dead boy sitting at the kitchen table, having apparently returned from the cemetery, leaving behind a trail of muddy footprints.

Together with Rosentock, another supernatural researcher, Jano and Albreck visit Juan, now the main suspect in his wife's murder and held in a psychiatric facility.

As weird phenomena occur and the investigators begin to die in gruesome and inexplicable ways, Funes realizes he has no choice but to flee the scene or risk losing his own life.
