About Seconds Apart

Two brothers, Seth and Jonah, discover they have a dangerous talent that lets them move objects with their minds. When strange accidents start happening at their school, suspicion falls on them even as they struggle to keep their powers in check. The brothers' once tight bond begins to crumble as envy and the lure of control push them apart, and each misstep draws them deeper into trouble. A wary detective keeps the case close, while the twins confront the consequences of their abilities and the fear they inspire in others. The story builds a claustrophobic mood around fear, rivalry, and the consequences of unchecked power, without revealing how it ultimately plays out. The tension stays tight throughout and never relents.

Seconds Apart is a 2011 horror thriller directed by Antonio Negret, written with a credit to George Richards as creator. The cast includes Orlando Jones, Edmund and Gary Entin, Samantha Droke and Louis Herthum, delivering a compact, tense cinematic experience.
