"BREAKING THE 5th WALL"
Where story and reality collide
Cinema isn't dead. Its evolving.
And so are we...
We blur the lines between fiction and reality with a marketing strategy that lives within the narrative. Leveraging real-life YouTubers, influencer campaigns, and in-world mockumentary drops, we invite the audience to become participants, not just spectators.
TRAILER? OPTIONAL.
VIRALITY? ESSENTIAL.

"TRAUMATICA"
A PSYCHEDELIC HORROR

"GOOD PEOPLE DONT HAVE BAD TRIPS"

"TRAUMATICA"
Since the sudden and simultaneous deaths of Bill and Emily Huxley, HUXLEY MANOR has stood empty. Flynn, their estranged son and reluctant heir, has distanced himself from the eerie estate—choosing instead a chaotic city life with his Instagram-addicted girlfriend, Kitty.
The town has never recovered from the Sugar Mill's closure—once run by Flynn's parents—and rumors swirl around the Huxleys' mysterious demise. When a trespassing YouTuber captures something terrifying on the property and the footage goes viral, the internet descends on the town in a frenzy of content creation and spiritual obsession.
Flynn is forced to return. The town blames him. But the Manor welcomes him. And it has no intention of letting him go.
As Flynn reconnects with Jasmine, a strong-willed local woman seeking her own escape, the story spirals into a nightmarish collision of memory, myth, and media. When another YouTuber attempts a supernatural cleansing, all hell breaks loose—literally.
As the lines between real and unreal dissolve, Jasmine is drawn into the property's terrifying grip, confronting generational trauma, divine mystery, and her own fractured reality. In a final act of courage, she enters the Manor alone.
The cost of light, however, is always shadow.
