Looks like screenwriter Michael Cooney has been brainstorming with the voices in his head to dream up his latest split-personality thriller Shelter.

The man behind the 2003 gem Identity, has once again penned a suspenseful mind-fuck that centers on a schizophrenic murder suspect (Jonathan Rhys Meyers) and the religious psychiatrist (Julianne Moore) working his case.

Check out the trailer:

The film’s synopsis reads:

Dr. Cara Jessup has made a career out of defying the notion of multiple personality disorders.  In the courtroom, her views and testimonies as an expert witness against multiple personality disorders have resulted in the death sentence of more than half a dozen murderers. Cara is devoted to science, but even her husband’s horrific murder did not cause Cara to lose her faith in God. Not so for her young daughter Samantha, a committed unbeliever.

After a particularly troubling court case, Cara’s father Dr. Harding introduces her to his new patient – Adam. The more she unearths about Adam, the more her life and those closest to her are endangered. As she explores Adam’s past, Cara’s world begins to fall apart and she is forced to question her strong beliefs in science and in God. Racing against the clock to solve the mystery surrounding Adam, Cara must not lose faith or it could have grave consequences for her and her family.

U.K. moviegoers can seek Shelter on April 9. Sadly, a U.S. release date has not been announced.

Julianne Moore can also be seen in the erotic-thriller Chloe. Click here to see an interview.
