Sean Patrick Flanery Talks About His Best Roles & New Film ‘Nefarious’ In An Interview

Sean Patrick Flannery is known for his many roles in films like Powder, Boondock Saints, and Suicide Kings and appearances in series such as “The Boys.” Flanery’s latest role is in the supernatural thriller Nefarious, set to be released in theaters today (April 14th). I sat down for an interview with the talented actor to discuss his most famous roles and his double role in the new film Nefarious, in which he gives an amazing performance. In the film, “On the day of his scheduled execution, a convicted serial killer (Flanery) gets a last-minute, court-ordered psychiatric evaluation. The killer astonishes visiting psychiatrist Dr. James Martin (Belfi) by insisting that instead of trying to avoid his execution, he is, in fact, a demon—Nefarious—who wants his execution to go forward. Nefarious further predicts that before the day is out, the doctor will have committed three murders of his own. As a storm gathers outside the prison, Nefarious chips away at Dr. Martin’s

Acclaimed Mystery ‘Trenque Lauquen’ Making Its US Theatrical Premiere

From acclaimed Argentinian director Laura Citarella comes Trenque Lauquen, a gripping tale of mystery that unfolds over twelve chapters and screened in two installments, premiering this April. Trenque Lauquen tells the story of Laura, a biologist cataloging plant species in the small town of Trenque Lauquen, Argentina, who has gone missing. Her boyfriend and a driver she’s worked with teamed up to track her down. The two men share stories and tour the doldrums of the Las Pampas area. As they get to know one another, they begin to unravel the mystery behind Laura’s disappearance, discoveries that lead to other discoveries, and even more questions. The deeper we go into the rabbit hole, the more the film begins to unfold like a giant map—sprouting stories within stories in a labyrinth of genres, characters, and vivid flashbacks. At turns, detective caper, thriller, sci-fi tale, and romance, Trenque Lauquen changes perspective in its second part and introduces supernatural elements into the drama.

A Woman Fights To Survive This May In 'Distress Signals'

A Woman Fights To Survive This May In ‘Distress Signals’

This May, a woman is desperate and injured in the survival thriller Distress Signals, written, directed, and produced by Terence Krey and Christine Nyland. In the film, “When a fall down a steep rock face separates her from her friends, Caroline finds herself stranded. Now, alone and with a dislocated shoulder, she must make her way out of the woods–and contend with how she got there.” In 2020, as the world ground to a halt, we – like everyone else – found ourselves canceling our plans. In our case, that meant shelving the film we’d intended to make that summer, even though we were more restless than ever. Desperate for something to hang on to as the world turned upside down, we briefly considered making a screen movie, but far too much of our lives had already transitioned to zoom, so our conversations turned toward isolation and depression – and the antidotes we craved. We wanted to do something together.
