The story is about a crazed minister/preacher who believes that Jesus rose from the dead because he studied Egyptian magic. He attempts the ritual he finds in the bible on his own family, with disastrous results.
On his 18th birthday, Johnny Petrie learns he was adopted when he inherits a farm in Maine, abandoned for the 18 years since his natural family died at the hands of his father, the local preacher. Eager for a new life, he leaves home to start over in his new dwelling. However, as he digs into his past, he soon uncovers the horrifying details of his father's questionable teachings. In a frightening revelation, he also learns that his return has revived decades-old forces trapped in the home and sets in motion a heart-stopping finale to a ritual that already claimed the lives of his family. Dead Souls stars Jesse James (The Amityville Horror, Fear of the Dark, The Butterfly Effect, Blow, Jumper) as Johnny, Bill Moseley (Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2, Night of the Living Dead, Army of Darkness, The Devil's Rejects, House of 1,000 Corpses, Halloween (2007)), Magda Apanowicz (The Butterfly Effect, Caprica, Kyle XY, Hellcats), Noah Fleiss (Brick,Taking Chance, Bad Day on the Block, Joe the King, Roommates) and Geraldine Hughes (Rocky Balboa, Gran Torino, Killing Lincoln).
