March has been a month of horror with last week’s conversation on The Bride! and movie monsters setting the stage for this week to dive into the paranormal with Ian Tuason’s directorial debut, undertone. Undertone premiered at Fantasia Festival on July 27, 2025, and was theatrically released in the US by A24 on March 13, 2026.
Today, we are calling all demonic spirits and paranormal skeptics while channeling the energy of the undertone podcast. The film stars Nina Kiri as Evy, a woman who hosts a paranormal podcast with her friend Justin played by Adam DiMarco, where she is the skeptic to his believer. After Evy moves back home to become the caregiver to her dying mother, she and Justin are sent recordings by a married couple experiencing paranormal noises in their home, drawing Evy into fear and paranoia.
We’ll discuss the film as well as look back at A24’s horror filmography by tier-ranking everything they have distributed in the genre.
