What Lies Below2020
“Fear comes to the surface.”
Directed by Braden R. Duemmler
The premise
A socially awkward teenager is blindsided when her mother introduces her to her new fiancée. At first, his charm, intelligence, and beauty seem too good to be true, and after a series of strange occurrences, the teenage daughter realizes that this new member of their family is not exactly who he seems.
Horror Vault's take
When sixteen-year-old Liberty returns to her family's lakeside cottage for the summer, she's caught off guard by her mother's handsome new fiancé — a man whose almost supernatural allure and peculiar habits set off alarm bells she can't quite explain. As strange events mount around the lake and her mother grows increasingly devoted to this mysterious stranger, Liberty finds herself alone in her suspicions and fighting to be believed. What Lies Below is a slow-burning thriller that weaponizes domestic comfort against the viewer, building to a deeply unsettling conclusion that lingers long after the credits roll.
