Clyde (Jeffrey Dean Morgan) and Stephanie Brenek (Kyra Sedgwick) see little cause for alarm when their youngest daughter Em becomes oddly obsessed with an antique wooden box she purchased at a yard sale. But as Ems behavior becomes increasingly erratic, the couple fears the presence of a malevolent force in their midst, only to discover that the box was built to contain a Dibbuk, a dislocated spirit that inhabits and ultimately devours it's human host.
In this unnerving supernatural thriller, the title "possession" first refers to an antique box purchased by a young girl (Natasha Calis) at a yard sale. Oddly locked and marked with Hebrew writing, the container becomes an object of unending curiosity for the child and her sister (Madison Davenport), with their parents (Jeffrey Dean Morgan, Kyra Sedgwick) learning too late that it may contain an evil spirit known as a Dybbuk. With Jay Brazeau, Grant Show. 92 min.
