A young doctor in a US hospital administers a powerful and untested cocktail of drugs to a coma victim. But instead of curing him, it triggers a powerful "out-of-body" experience and enables the patient - a depraved and dangerous loner - to inhabit other people's bodies and, through them, take revenge on the bullying medical students who were accidentally responsible for his condition.

Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Released as 'Red Mist' in the UK and 'Freakdog' in the US because distributors couldn't agree which sounded more like a Syfy original.
This bombed at 4.9/10 but perfectly captures the 2008-era 'torture porn' hangover when Hollywood tried to make every horror film medically grotesque after Saw's success.
