US actress Hilary Swank smiles during the presentation of her latest film 'The Reaping' on Monday 2 april 2007 in Barcelona, Spain. EPA/GUIDO MANUILOThe Oscar-winning actress revealed the film set was rife with unnerving paranormal activity. She said: "A lot of strange stuff happened. The sound went all strange during one scene where you see the decomposed body of a boy. The boy has a symbol on his back, and every time the camera panned down to it the sound would go weird and our voices would slow down to 'raaaaaar'. It would happen every time we did that scene. "The first time we were like, 'Okay, reload, go again.' Went again, and at that exact moment it happened again. Five takes later it kept happening. And they said, 'Okay, forget it, let's just do it later.' I don't know. I mean that's weird. It didn't just happen at different takes in the movie, either."Swank plays a Christian missionary who specialises in debunking religious phenomena and is sent to investigate a small town thought to be suffering from ten biblical plagues.'The Reaping' is due for release later this month.(C) BANG Media International
