N2  - "1968: Actress Gemma Turner once dreamed of stardom. Unfortunately, she's on the cusp of slipping into obscurity. When she's offered the lead in a radical new horror film, Gemma believes her luck has finally changed. But L'Etrange Lune's set is not what she expected. The director is eccentric, and the script doesn't make sense. Gemma is determined to make this work. It's her last chance to achieve her dream-but that dream is about to derail her life. One night, between the shadows of an alleyway, Gemma disappears on set and is never seen again. Yet, Gemma is still alive. She's been transported into the film and the script-and the monsters within it-are coming to life. She must play her role perfectly if she hopes to survive. 2015: Gemma Turner's disappearance is one of film history's greatest mysteries-one that's haunted film student Christopher Kent ever since he saw his first screening of L'Etrange Lune. The screenings only happen once a decade and each time there is new, impossible footage of Gemma long after she vanished. Desperate to discover the truth, Christopher risks losing himself. He'll have to outrun the cursed legacy of the film-or become trapped by it forever"--
