Troubled college freshman Luke (Miles Robbins) suffers a violent family trauma and resurrects his childhood imaginary friend Daniel (Patrick Schwarzenegger) to help him cope. Charismatic and full of manic energy, Daniel helps Luke to achieve his dreams, before pushing him to the very edge of sanity and into a desperate struggle for control of his mind – and his soul.

“Pitched somewhere between "Fight Club” and a Clive Barker creature feature, “Daniel Isn't Real” is a wild ride worth taking to be in the company of its promising young stars." - Los Angeles Times

“What starts as a mediocre psychological thriller finishes as a surprisingly toothsome and creative horror film, complete with creature features and journeys into the abyss.” - New York Times
