It Lives Inside

A chronic sleepwalker reads from a mysterious book that foretells his impending demonic possession. He then struggles to hold his family together as the ancient evil threatens to consume everything he holds dear.

"Actually, (the toddler) was a pretty good actor. He provided a lot of takes on the scenes. … He was a lot of fun." - Jeff

"It’s a lot of normal stuff shot in a very straightforward, normal way, not too much flare to it, although there are a couple scenes where it ramps up, that’s nowhere near enough to give us what we need." - Doc

Director: Jeff Hall
Cast: Rett Terrell, Alissa Rose Ford

October Coast release August 7 on VOD and September 4 on DVD

Dead Love

In a secluded mountain town, a young man unwittingly falls in love with a mysterious funeral director who is guarding a dark secret.

"... the acting was good, … especially Nicole Elizabeth Olson. … and it had an interesting premise." - Jeff

"It benefits from having a good cast. I liked all four of the leads and the characters were interesting." - Doc

The classy, haunting and effective festival favorite making its VOD debut 8/21, followed by a DVD release in October.

Tau

A woman is held captive by a scientist in a futuristic smart house and hopes to escape by reasoning with the Artificial Intelligence that controls the house.

"Definitely, definitely check it out. It’s a great sci-fi, a great story, really harkens back to some of the older sci-fi stories that you would read." - Vanessa

"It all makes perfect sense. I can’t find a logic hole in it anywhere." - Jeff

"It really is interesting how the Julia character (Maika Monroe) and Tau interact. That’s when the film really shines." - Doc
