Red Lights Trailer – Sigourney Weaver & Cillian Murphy doubt the paranormal
Every year there are a ridiculous amount of movies about the paranormal, but Red Lights look more interesting than most, if only because the cast includes Sigourney Weaver, Cillian Murphy and Robert De Niro, and it’s directed by Buried helmer Rodrigo Cortes. The film is about two investigators of paranormal hoaxes – the veteran Dr. Margaret Matheson (Weaver) and her young assistant, Tom Buckley (Murphy) – study metaphysical phenomena with the aim of proving their fraudulent origins. Simon Silver (De Niro), a legendary blind psychic, reappears after an enigmatic absence of 30 years to become the greatest international challenge to both orthodox science and professional sceptics. Tom starts to develop an intense obsession with Silver, whose magnetism becomes stronger with each new manifestation of inexplicable events. As Tom gets closer to Silver, tension mounts, and his worldview is threatened to its core. It’s due out in May, but now the rather intense trailer is here.
