Retribution. 1987.

George a manic depressive artist tries to commit suicide, Vito a low life gangster is killed by his hoodlum friends and possesses George's body to seek revenge.

Dennis Lipscomb plays the failed artist George who manages to survive his fall from the building where he stays and somehow during the balance of life and death he ends up being possessed. Leslie Wing plays the psychiatrist treating George and believes something is wrong but tries to rule out possession but can't deny what's happening. Suzanne Snyder plays the neighbour/friend Angel who witnesses the freak outs and sympathizes that her friend is troubled.

This is not a big budget and good debut film for Guy Magar who manages to create a somewhat ghost story that can make the audience feel sympathy for the main character. His life feels like shit, tries to end it then has more troubles than what he doesn't want. It is a decent chiller movie and worth a watch.
