Interview: Ian Tuason, Nina Kiri, and Adam DiMarco Talk Undertone

One of the things I love about horror is how scary a simple concept can be. In The Blair Witch Project, you have amateur filmmakers face the unknown. And then there was the success of the Paranormal Activity franchise that brought the chills of a haunting to a suburban nightmare. Since then, we have seen many a flick with a smaller budget that has captured the attention of horror connoisseurs. The latest thriller to give the audience a chill is the Ian Tuason indie, Undertone.

The story revolves around Evie (Nina Kiri), a host of a popular paranormal podcast. Along with her co-host, Justin (Adam DiMarco), the two find themselves facing very dark and horrific content. After she is sent 10 audio recordings of some very spooky material, things get really spooky for Evy. The film connected with much of what made both Blair Witch and Paranormal Activity work for this viewer. It is a dark and trippy flick that uses audio beautifully to ratchet up the scares.

Last week, I sat down with the writer/director Ian Tuason, along with both Nina Kiri and Adam DiMarco. It was wonderful meeting Mr. DiMarco. He opened up about the success he found at Fantasia, Sundance and how Undertone became an A24 release. As for Ms. Kiri, she opened up about carrying so much of the film, and frankly, it sounds like they had a blast. When it came to Adam DiMarco, he discussed creating an on-screen relationship while maintaining an off-screen one.

It was such a pleasure chatting paranormal with these three. At the end of the discussion, I was curious if they decided to take a chance at a ghost hunt to bring spooky energy to the production.

Are you looking for supernatural frights? You will probably want to check out Undertone with a packed audience ready to get scared. Look for it this weekend at a theatre near you. Check out our review HERE.
