It was released in American theaters on January 9, 2009, by Rogue Pictures.
Casey Beldon has nightmarish hallucinations of strange-looking dogs and an evil child with bright blue eyes. While babysitting Matty, her neighbor's son, she finds him showing his infant sibling its reflection in a mirror. Matty attacks Casey with the mirror and tells her, "Jumby wants to be born now."
Casey's friend Romy tells her of a superstition that newborns should not see their reflections for at least a year because otherwise they will die soon. Casey's eyes begin to change color; a doctor asks if she is a twin, and explains the change as tetragametic chimerism and heterochromia. Her neighbor's infant dies, supporting the superstition.
