Purgatory House begins where most stories end, as it chronicles the afterlife journey of a lonely teenage girl who has abandoned her life of turmoil and drug addiction in search of unconditional love. Told in non-linear fashion, this stylistic dark-comedy/ fantasy marks the feature writing debut of 14-year-old Celeste Davis, and offers a quirky, uncensored glimpse into the mind of today's American youth. -- © Free Dream Pictures [More]

Reviews for Purgatory House
There's a lack of polish and, more importantly, an uninhibited demeanor to Davis's script which work well for the subject matter
A charming, touching, clever and all-around brilliantly crafted film about teen suicide.
A fairly compelling movie, but when one realizes that the screenplay was penned by a 14-year-old gal...it adds a whole new perspective to all the angst being tossed around.
