As the title of this article suggested, does the perfect man exists? Or the perfect woman? What are the limits on the concept of the perfect couple? Is our “better half” really out there or is it just another cheesy saying from our quest to search for a magical perfect world that doesn’t exist?

In What Lies Below (2020), a 16-year-old girl returns home from camp and learns that her mother has a new boyfriend, one she intends to marry. A man whose charm, intelligence, and beauty make him look like he’s not human at all.

This is the debut feature film of writer and director Braden R. Duemmler after a few short films.

The movie is starred by a grown Mena Suvari, who was one of the teen sensations at the change of the century thanks to her participation in movies like American Beauty (1999), Loser (2000), Spun (2002), Domino (2005), and the American Pie saga. Ema Horvath, Troy Iwata, Danny Corbo, Trey Tucker, and Haskiri Velazquez complete the main cast.

The movie is already available on Video on Demand platforms via Vertical Entertainment. Here you can watch its official trailer.
