- A re-imagining of the 1986 Empire Pictures exploitation movie classic, NECROPOLIS: LEGION tells the tale of satanic vampire sorceress Eva, whose sexually-charged midnight rituals are interrupted when God-fearing local villagers burst into her lair and murder her. A century later, motorcycle-riding writer Lisa moves into the same cabin where Eva was executed, with the intent to write a book about the supposedly haunted spot's history. Soon, Lisa is having vivid, perverse dreams and slowly, surely, Eva begins taking over the young woman, using her body as a vessel to commit even more atrocities in the name of resurrecting an ancient monster from the underworld.
- Preteen brothers from a broken marriage live with their mother, Denise, in a rural town. Ryan, the cheeky elder boy, wants to go live with their father, Matt, in Chicago. This confuses shy Charlie, the youngest, who is also the butt of bigger school kids' often mean pranks. Then he finds two reindeer on his way home from school which he believes to be Santa's called Prancer and his son and heir, also called Prancer, which he tries to hide at home. Ryan's help bonds the brothers again. Alas when Prancer gets out, evil vice-principal James Klock is bitten and wants the 'public danger' put down. Charlie runs away with his protégé.

- 30 GHOSTS chronicles rural Ontario horse farmer and paranormal-investigator-on-the-side, Kim Hadfield, over a year of intense struggle as she pursues her dream of proving to mankind that ghosts exist. With the help of three fun-loving, quirky friends, Hadfield fights her way through internal and external roadblocks to achieve her goal: to capture photographic evidence of a spirit. Our crew follows Hadfield and her troupe - the Halton Paranormal Group - as they "get their ghost on". These phantasm-hunting females spend their time investigating local eccentric's homes, as well as boarded-up abandoned houses, often encountering the local police department while doing so. We follow the group as their profile grows, gaining widespread media coverage after they investigate large public buildings. But as Hadfield gains experience, her personal and financial life also suffers, and we witness the mental strain that this ghostly obsession puts on her. This film is a portrayal of ambition, obsession, and one woman's quest to capture something that may not exist. The results are at times tragic, bizarre, comical and genuinely spooky.

During her investigation Irma finds out that nothing is true of what she knew. She is not who she believed herself to be. Mystery and secrets cover everything.
