An interview with the director of DEAR DAVID, the new horror thriller from Lionsgate, in THEATERS, ON DEMAND AND DIGITAL October 13, 2023. Based on the viral Twitter thread by BuzzFeed comic artist Adam Ellis. Shortly after comic artist Adam (Augustus Prew) responds to Internet trolls, he begins experiencing sleep paralysis — while an empty rocking chair moves in the corner of his apartment. As he chronicles increasingly malevolent occurrences in a series of tweets, Adam begins to believe he is being haunted by the ghost of a dead child named David.
