Episode 282 - Undertone Unveiled: A Canadian Supernatural Horror Experience
Friday, 3 April, 2026
An introduction to Undertone, the Canadian supernatural horror film written and directed by Ian Tuason and starring Nina Kiri and Adam DiMarco. We set the stage with the film’s premise, its atmospheric approach, and A24’s role in shaping its release. Expect a tease of the themes, visuals, and chills to come. We cover direction, production design, location choices, and practical effects that contribute to its haunting atmosphere. We explore the film's sonic landscape—the whispers, the creaks, and the moments of absolute quiet that drive fear. We unpack the sound design and how audio amplifies suspense without overpowering the story. We also take a thought-provoking look at the film’s core themes, such as memory, the unseen, and the nature of dread. We discuss symbolism, potential readings, and how the supernatural elements reflect human psychology. Is it one of the best modern day horror films? Listen in to find out!
