Audio engineer Becca desperately tries to convince unhinged podcast host Sean Palermo to cancel his provocative live episode featuring a controversial guest, which sparks disturbing online rhetoric and escalating violence outside their studio.

Review by Andie Karvelis:

When a controversial guest appears on a live podcast taping, things go horribly wrong. This suspenseful thriller was written and directed by Christian La Morte and what an intriguing tale he created. Sean Palermo is our influential podcast host, portrayed brilliantly by Thomas Philip O’Neill. He captured that egotistical, narcissistic charm as only a very accomplished actor could. Becca, is Sean Palermo’s audio engineer and you instantaneously like her and feel empathy for her situation. Sophia Lucia Parola portrays Becca and her acting skills are an equal match to Thomas’s making it a joy to watch them interact.

I have to admit, I fell in love with the cinematography in this film. The clarity and depth of colors brought out by Anthony Altamura was just sensational. Every frame had a cohesive look and the lighting was perfect.

Right from the start the filmmakers grab your attention with some lovely foreshadowing and visual fx from Maxwell Seiler and Greg Joblove. Adding in the talents of Benjamin Doherty to create a score that was beautifully unsettling, making you feel there was something sinister on the horizon. The entire team really paid attention to the details and it paid off

The story reminded me of an episode of Black Mirror, this is something that could easily happen in our near future if we aren’t careful. I also appreciate it when a film doesn’t spoon feed the audience everything, instead giving you enough breadcrumbs to figure it out. The filmmakers had a good balance here but I wish there were a couple more breadcrumbs at the very end.

All in all, this was definitely an edge of your seat thriller that is worth a watch.
