The film stars Nina Kiri as Evy, a woman who hosts a paranormal podcast with her friend Justin (Adam DiMarco), where she is the skeptic to his believer. After Evy moves back home to become the caregiver to her dying mother (Michèle Duquet), she and Justin are sent recordings by a married couple experiencing paranormal noises in their home, drawing Evy into fear and paranoia.
As horror continues to thrive through the 2020s, A24 is preparing to drop a terrifying gem in Ian Tuason’s excellent “undertone.” It’s a movie that has some of the themes that have dominated the form lately like grief and lack of faith but embeds them in a sonic and visual nightmare that announces its filmmaker as a major talent.
