A monster and a monstrous human bring on the menace in this excerpt from the effects-heavy fright feature.
The directorial debut of visual effects artist Peter Sefchik (AVATAR, the HARRY POTTER and STAR WARS films), BEHEMOTH is coming to digital platforms this Friday, August 27 from Level 33 Entertainment. Scripted and produced by Sefchik and Derrick Ligas, it stars Josh Eisenberg, Paul Statman, Jennifer Churchich, Richard Wagner and Whitney Nielsen. The synopsis: “Joshua Riverton [Eisenberg] spent 10 years working for a global chemical behemoth, notorious for their environmental negligence. When his daughter develops a mysterious illness, he steps forward as a whistle-blower, throwing his life into chaos. He’s convinced that his company’s negligence has made his daughter sick, and there are dark forces hiding the truth. When given the chance to confront his old boss, Dr. Woeland [Statman], he allows a standoff to escalate into violence, and Josh is shot in the process. Now Josh is on the run, eating painkillers, and holding Woeland hostage. Josh demands answers about his daughter’s illness, but with each passing moment around Woeland, Josh’s grasp on reality begins to unravel. Is it the painkillers, or is Woeland more than he seems? Are the dark forces all in Josh’s head, or has he stumbled into a terrifying league of evil?”
