Alex is trapped in a downward spiral of shallow hookups and tepid connections, but she is caught off guard when her dating app swipes lead her into the arms of a mysterious, charming young man, Kyle. Despite their passionate night, when the sun rises, the mystery man is nowhere to be found. Alex then sets out to find the one person who made her feel alive. Through her investigation, she reconnects with Kyle, but also digs up a ghastly supernatural secret. The pair quickly descend into a whirlwind of obsession, dependence, lust, and infatuation that has grave consequences. (Shudder)

“With its clever twists and turns, Kane has crafted a tight, tense film that also has a lot to say about our modern dating culture and how relationships have become so reliant on technology.” – Scott Phillips, Forbes

“Elric Kane’s debut is a confident plunge into the horrors of modern dating. I like an indie that’s both sexy and bloody, and at its core, The Dead Thing is just that.” – Chad Collins, Dread Central
