Directed by the duo Cary Solomon and Chuck Konzelman, known for their work on films with spiritual themes, Nefarious is a psychological thriller that explores the depths of the human soul and the mysteries of possession. The film stars Sean Patrick Flanery as Edward Wayne Brady, a serial killer sentenced to death, and Jordan Belfi as Dr. James Martin, the psychiatrist charged with assessing his mental health prior to execution. Tom Ohmer completes the cast as the prison warden.
The plot takes place on the day of Edward Wayne Brady's execution. During his final psychiatric evaluation, Brady claims to be possessed by a demon, and prophesies that by the end of the day, the psychiatrist will have committed three murders. This tense standoff between the two protagonists raises questions about the reality of possession, guilt and the nature of evil.
Nefarious will be released in cinemas from March 28, 2025.
Synopsis: On the day of his execution, a serial killer sentenced to the electric chair undergoes a final psychiatric evaluation during which he reveals that he is possessed by a demon. He claims that by the end of the day, the psychiatrist will have committed three murders himself.
Nefarious should captivate viewers with a passion for psychological thrillers centered on intense dialogue and mental confrontations. Fans of films exploring the themes of demonic possession and moral dilemmas may find it of particular interest. Those who have enjoyed works such as The Exorcist or The Silence of the Lambs may be drawn to the dynamic between the psychiatrist and the condemned man.
On the other hand, viewers looking for sustained action or scary scenes may find the film's pace slower, as it favors psychological tension and verbal jousting.
