(Pre-order HERE). In anticipation of this release, we've gotten our hands on an EXCLUSIVE clip from the film. This clip is embedded above, and gives a look at a creepy moment involving an imaginary friend and a little boy with a sharp knife.
Christensen wrote Z with Colin Minihan, crafting a story that has the following synopsis:
When Beth’s son brings home an imaginary friend named Z, she becomes concerned that he is falling too deep into a world of make believe. He starts to display extremely destructive behavior, blaming Z for all of his actions. But after he gets kicked out of school, Beth is forced to find a solution. She medicates her son, making him unable to see his imaginary companion. But now Beth sees Z… and he wants to be her friend.
