Nina Kiri plays the role of a paranormal podcaster in the horror film The Undertone by Black Fawn.
Black Fawn Films has revealed their newest horror project, The Undertone, which features Nina Kiri (The Handmaid’s Tale) as the host of a paranormal podcast who receives eerie messages that may link to her ailing mother’s past. Below are the first look images of the film, which is set to premiere at the Fantasia International Film Festival later this month in Montreal.
The Undertone centers on a podcast host who specializes in all things creepy and moves into her mother’s house to care for her as she nears the end of her life. When she receives ten unusual audio recordings from a young pregnant couple experiencing supernatural sounds, she realizes that the woman's tale reflects her own life. With each new recording, her grip on reality begins to slip, drawing her into an unavoidable fate.
Joining Nina Kiri in the cast are Michèle Duquet (The Virgin Suicides) and Kris Holden-Ried (The Umbrella Academy). The film marks Ian Tuason’s feature film debut, which he both wrote and directed. The producers are Dan Slater and Cody Calahan, with Chad Archibald serving as executive producer.
“Having been born in Montreal and having showcased my VR horror short at Fantasia in 2016, debuting my first feature here feels like the perfect homecoming,” Tuason shared. “I can’t wait to terrify the best horror audience I’ve ever encountered.”
“The Undertone captures something hauntingly fundamental. It’s unsettling, profoundly personal, and truly unforgettable,” Archibald commented. “As Black Fawn Distribution continues to expand, our goal is to support filmmakers with clear, unwavering visions. The Undertone succeeds on all levels, and we are proud to present Ian’s remarkable feature film debut at Fantasia and to the global audience.”
The Undertone is set to premiere at Fantasia on July 27th.
