Alex Haughey and Brian Vidal teamed up to write and direct the sci-fi thriller PRODIGY, which recently finished an award-winning festival run and will be receiving a VOD release courtesy of Gravitas Ventures  next Tuesday, March 13th. 

Described as a "contained thriller with some Twilight Zone edge" that seamlessly blends "the intimacy of a personal drama with the excitement of a supernatural thriller", the film has the following synopsis:

A secret branch of the military calls upon psychologist James Fonda to take the case of a dangerous patient, nine-year-old Ellie. As their session begins, the young girl dissects Dr. Fonda's unconventional methods, revealing her genius-level intellect. Only by challenging her to a battle of wits does Fonda begin to unravel the supernatural mystery surrounding Ellie — a deadly secret that threatens to destroy them both.

Richard Neil, Savannah Liles, and Jolene Andersen star.

The trailer for PRODIGY can be seen below, and it looks like an interesting "creepy kid" movie. If you like what you see, watch for the full film to hit VOD in just five days.
