Black Mold (2023)
Directed by John Pata (Dead Weight)
Featuring: Agnes Albright, Andrew Bailes, Jeremy Holm
When Brooke encounters a stranger in an abandoned building, her traumatic memories surface, and she must either find closure or let fear consume her.
"Like a decaying body in a rural field, the abandoned buildings scattered across the country decay, rot, and decompose, eaten away by bacteria and fungi. In his dramatic horror thriller Black Mold, writer and director John Pata employs this setting to explore trauma and fear." - E.L. King, Slay Away
"The sheer sense of terror that they experience translates to a real sense of overarching dread for the audience; a dread that gives Black Mold more tension than one expects." - Phil Wheat, Nerdly
"One thing is for certain — there’s psychological horror aplenty on tap." - Joseph Perry, Horror Fuel
The story centers on photographers Brooke Konrad (Agnes Albright) and Tanner Behlman (Andrew Bailes) as they travel to rural, abandoned buildings to capture the inherent beauty of long-forgotten locations, but far from forgotten are the traumatic memories that surface in Brooke when they meet The Man Upstairs, an unsuspecting squatter (Jeremy Holm). As tensions and uncertainties arise, Brooke must determine if this mysterious stranger will provide her the closure she so desperately seeks or let the fears of the past consume her.
