Poster, trailer and synopsis for spookfest The Appearing, starring Dean Cain

Last Updated on August 2, 2021

A movie with Dean Cain, Joe Estevez and Don Swayze?! This must be our lucky day!

The imposing trio star in THE APPEARING, a supernatural thriller said to be in the vein of THE POSSESSION and FALLEN. Don’t know how accurate that is, but today the trailer, poster and synopsis are available, so dive right in! (By the way, “The Appearing”? That sound odd to anybody else?)

Peep the very, very long synopsis below:

City detective Michael (Will Wallace, “The Tree of Life,” “The New World”) relocates to a quaint, small town with his wife Rachel (Emily Brooks, “The Eugenist”), following her emotional breakdown after the sudden death of their young daughter. Michael takes a job in the sheriff’s office, thinking not much will happen in such a quiet town. However, on his first day of duty, Michael is asked to investigate the mysterious disappearance of a teenage girl.

Michael teams up with Sheriff Hendricks (Don Swayze, “Heathens and Thieves,” “The Visitation”) to unlock the mystery. As their investigation deepens, they discover the missing girl’s boyfriend is locked up in a mental institution. They meet with his doctor, Dr. Shaw (Dean Cain, TV’s “Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman,” “Out of Time”), who explains they may be dealing with a dark supernatural entity, much to Michael’s disbelief.

Meanwhile, Michael isn’t the only one encountering an evil force– Rachel is being terrorized with constant nightmares and visions of a bloodied girl. Even though the dreams torment her, they end up leading her to the location of the missing teenage girl.

But the case is far from being over, as the evil entity now possesses Rachel and Sheriff Hendricks has a dark secret of his own. Michael will have to summon up all his courage and faith to fight the evil forces in “The Appearing.”
