A Little Trip to Heaven

A chilly, slow-burning noir that creeps under your skin with quiet dread and a bleak, wintry mood.

Tagline: There is no such thing as a no fault death.
Overview: Insurance investigator Abraham Holt travels to a tiny town in rural Minnesota to look into a particularly unusual insurance claim stemming from a horrific car accident. As Holt examines the scene of the wreck, it all seems a bit too perfect. And when he interviews Isold Mcbride and her shifty husband, Fred -- the impoverished beneficiaries of the massive, recently initiated life-insurance policy -- he begins to suspect that something is amiss.
How it feels: Dark, melancholic, tense and cynical. Slow-burning and needs your attention.
About: Deception, greed, crime, betrayal
Content: Mild violence, gore, sexual content and language.
Note: Written by AI, so it can be wrong. Full breakdown
