Trailer - Beneath (2013)

I'm a huge fan of Larry Fessenden, an under-appreciated horror director who takes standard genre tropes and bends them to serve interesting social, philosophical and psychological ideas. I'm hoping to profile more of his work on here soon.

While he produces a lot of movies for others, it seems like a rarity when Fessenden gets the opportunity to direct something himself. His last one was his ecological horror thriller The Last Winter back in 2006. Thus anytime he has something ready for release, I'm interested.

Now we have the trailer for his newest, a good old-fashioned lake monster movie that brings to mind Stephen King's intensely creepy story "The Raft." I'm eager to see what this one holds. Take a look...

Beneath is scheduled for limited release sometime in July.
