Supernatural Horror 'Nefarious' Conjures An August DVD Release Date

Horror Adaptation ‘Nefarious’ Possesses An April Theatrical Release Date

Sean Patrick Flanery and Jordan Belfi star in Nefarious, inspired by the book A Nefarious Plot by New York Times best-selling author Steve Deace, “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 resolve and conviction, confounding and unsettling him so much that he begins to doubt his own sanity and fear for his life. As the two face off, they deliver crackling energy and a series of disturbing preternatural revelations propelling them to an inexorable, astounding conclusion. Tom Ohmer, Eric Hansen, Stelio Savante, Robert Peters, and Cameron
