It was my father's
religious beliefs
that destroyed
our family.
[WINGS FLUTTERING]
[INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC]
We have to be so very
careful what we believe in.
Hello.
There's a... there's a little
Come on, come on.
He wants to talk
to someone.
Oh, he's a little...
he's a little lad
and he... and he's
lookin' for his mom.
He's sayin' his name
is... is Rob or Robbie.
Is that... Is that you,
sweetheart?
Stand up, my love.
Mark Van Rhys is one of the
UK's most popular psychics.
He believes that we're making a
documentary about his special powers
whereas, in fact, we are investigating
the many, many complaints
that have been made
against him.
Do what this lady has done
and accept the message.
Mark?
Mark, can you hear me?
Oh, just give us a sign.
Scratch your nose
for a sec, see.
Oh, thank God for that.
It's Steph, right?
The woman's name's Steph.
He calls you mom, but
he's... he's telling me
your name is Steph?
[SOBS]
Oh, my God.
Is... Is that right,
my love?
- Are you Steph?
- Yeah.
Okay,
so before the show starts
Van Rhys' team
have audience members
fill out one of these
prayer cards.
There are the name
and details
of the person
they wish to contact
who has passed over
to the other side.
The team then steal
this information
and they feed it back
to Van Rhys
through a hidden earpiece,
which I just hacked into
and, hey, presto,
he's psychic.
[GASPS]
My blood hurts, mommy.
My blood hurts.
Why is he saying that?
[SOBS]
He had leukemia.
Poor little lamb.
Oh, he's got a cheeky
little smile, hasn't he?
[LAUGHS]
Yes.
Children often make
the best connection
because they're so pure,
you see.
He was such a good boy.
He still is, my sweet,
he still is.
He says he's happy
but he does miss
your cooking.
Ladies and gentlemen,
I am sorry to interrupt.
My name is
Professor Philip Goodman
from the TV program
"Psychic Cheats."
Mr. Van Rhys,
we have got..
Mr. Van Rhys,
we have got proof
that you are being fed information
through a hidden earpiece
and you are passing it off
as contact with the dead...
- Excuse me, sir.
- I beg your pardon.
This is gonna be broadcast
on national television.
Can you deny that you
were using an earpiece?
That's slander.
I can assure you,
you will be hearing
from my solicitor
in due course.
His assistant just
told him that Robbie
was in
Christchurch Hospital.
I can play you the tape.
I'm sorry.
Christchurch Hospital!
[SOBS]
He's lyin', isn't he?
[SOBBING]
The idea of us
and our loved ones dying
just ceasing to exist
is so awful
that we'll believe
something beyond.
That fear is known
as existential terror
and the man who coined that phrase was Dr.
Charles Cameron.
So why do you think
the voices
come through you, Jean?
'Cause we love her.
And how many voices
are there?
I moved back in.
She's only here 'cause
she ran out of booze.
Mom.
She fingered herself
last night
thinkin'
about John Travolta.
Daddy sees everything.
[SHATTERS]
Jesus!
I've seen this before.
Your mother
feels abandoned
at the death
of your father.
Is she possessed?
No, she's angry that
her husband had died.
As for the vase..
[SHATTERS]
...I did that.
The brain sees
what it wants to see.
When I saw that clip
when I was a boy
it was like
'cause it was like
somebody saying
