The filmmakers’ latest mind-twister now has a release date.

XYZ Films will bring SOMETHING IN THE DIRT to theaters November 4. The fifth film by celebrated directors Justin Benson and Aaron Moorhead (THE ENDLESS, SPRING, RESOLUTION) from a script by Benson, it also stars the duo. The synopsis: “Levi [Benson] has snagged a no-lease apartment sight unseen in the Hollywood Hills to crash at while he ties up loose ends for his exodus from Los Angeles. He quickly strikes up a rapport with his new neighbor John [Moorhead], swapping stories like old friends under the glowing, smoke-filled skies of the city. Soon after meeting, Levi and John witness something impossible in one of their apartments. Terrified at first, they soon realize this could change their lives and give them a purpose. With dollar signs in their eyes, these two eccentric strangers will attempt to prove the supernatural.”
