The captivating tale of an orphan boy called Pete and his friend Elliott, who just happens to be a nine-foot tall, bright green, magical dragon! Pete escapes his nasty adoptive parents with Elliott’s help, beginning a quest to find a place to belong. Happening upon a coastal town in Maine, Pete befriends the local lighthouse keeper and his daughter. Elliott’s mischievous nature gets the pair into scrapes with comedic results, and Pete finds the loving home he has been searching for. A mix of live action and animation in the vein of Mary Poppins and Bedknobs and Broomsticks, the film features an Oscar-nominated soundtrack.

Radio host Stevie finds herself at the centre of a sweeping tide of fear and suspense. Fatalities build as an eerie, impenetrable fog starts to close in on the town and we discover the malevolent presence within…
