Modern-day TV viewers know that reality show subjects doing disturbing things is nothing new, but in Delivery: The Beast Within, a camera crew following a young couple's pregnancy captures unnerving behavior of the paranormal variety, leading to content too controversial even for reality TV. We’ve been provided with an exclusive behind-the-scenes clip in which director Brian Netto discusses the film's origins.
Los Angeles, CA – "A jaw-dropping intense thriller with a “shocking, can’t-believe-I-saw-that conclusion” (HorrorNews.net), Delivery: The Beast Within terrifies on DVD and digital HD September 30 from Cinedigm (NASDAQ: CIDM) and The Collective. Blending found footage and reality show genres, the nightmarish feature that is “so intense, so frightening, and so real” (Aint It Cool News) marks the directorial debut of Brian Netto, who also co-wrote the film with producer Adam Schindler, and is “bolstered by outstanding performances by its two leads,” (IndieWire) Laurel Vail and Danny Barclay.
Delivery: The Beast Within follows Kyle (Barclay) and Rachel Massy (Vail), a young couple who agrees to document their first pregnancy for a new reality show. The family begins to unravel when the cameras capture a series of unexplained events, leading Rachel to believe that a malicious spirit has possessed their unborn child. After production is abandoned, a first hand account of the tragic, and possibly supernatural, story is told through the show’s un-aired footage and testimonials from friends, family and crew members.
