Beyond Paranormal Director's Cut

Box Girl Lily is chasing fame with a camera in her hands, ready to push boundaries for the next viral surge. While she hypes her upcoming project, a mysterious statue arrives and sparks a fixation that feels both strange and undeniable. To prove the phenomenon to her followers, she ropes her boyfriend into filming what seems like a real possession. As the clicks climb, the couple finds themselves spiraling into something that tests their grip on reality. The more they broadcast the uncanny happening, the more the line between performance and danger blurs, until fear takes center stage in their online world. The camera acts like a character itself, turning viewers into a chorus that pushes Lily toward riskier stunts.

Directed by Matteo Ribaudo and released in 2023, Beyond Paranormal Director's Cut brings together a slick indie aesthetic with tight suspense. It stars Cortney Palm as Lily, Ryan Donowho as Ray, and Patricia Rae as Angela, with a sharp score.
