DESCRIPTION

The sun beams down on a village green where people are playing cricket. It is the annual competition between the villagers and members of the local mental hospital. Sitting in the scoring tent are two patients, Crossley and Graves. Crossley tells a terrifying story of how he had supernatural powers that allowed him to kill with his shout. Although Robert dismisses it as an insane fantasy, as the match continues, the proceedings take a decidedly sinister and unexpected turn.
