Lord of Tears

Lord of Tears is a 2013 Scottish horror film directed by Lawrie Brewster and was his horror film directorial debut. The film first released on October 25, 2013 in Whitby at the Bram Stoker International Film Festival, where it won two awards. The film follows a Scottish schoolteacher that begins to see visions of the Owl Man, a strange figure that he was obsessed with as a child.

As James stays at the mansion he begins to fall in love with Eve while also discovering that the house sits atop a series of catacombs and that his parents dabbled in pagan magic in order to achieve fortune. He eventually begins to recall more from his past even as the Owl Mans presence begins to grow increasingly ominous, culminating in James discovering that his parents had been worshipping Moloch, who would grant wishes in exchange for a sacrifice. This causes James to regain his lost memories, discovering that Moloch had been manifesting himself as the Owl Man and that he was supposed to be the sacrifice that Moloch demanded. His parents were unwilling to offer James, so they took in an orphaned American girl as a nanny and murdered her in Jamess stead, claiming that as they had been her guardians, she was a reasonable substitute. James then realizes that this girl was Eve, which has the unfortunate effect of making Eve remember the events as well and turn into a menacing figure intent on driving James insane via a series of attacks. He tries to flee from the house but finds that Moloch will not allow him to leave.When Allen arrives on the estate James believes that he is saved, only for Allen to instead attack and murder him. Clearly upset, Allen begs for James to forgive him even as he is killing him, explaining that Moloch came to him and offered to save his father Neil Cooper if he completed the sacrifice. The film then cuts to Allen driving his father home from the hospital and then flashes back to the mansion, where a light suddenly turns on in the catacombs, hinting that Jamess ghost has taken the place of Eves and will remain there until another sacrifice is performed. ........
