It’s one creepy story.
Johannes Grenzfurthner’s new film Masking Threshold is a tale of madness told through extreme close-ups and macro lenses. It’s a contemporary take on the mad scientist through in-world camera and found footage techniques. What starts as a man searching for answers becomes a bloody and horrific spectacle.
Check out the full synopsis below:
Frustrated by a constant ringing in his ears, a paranoid data analyst documents his obsessive attempts to cure his own debilitating tinnitus through a series of home experiments conducted in a make-shift lab. But as his research becomes increasingly dark and macabre, a horrifying secret behind his maddening condition is revealed with a potential cure more sinister than he could have ever imagined.
Dread Central spoke with Grenzfurthner about madness, messy queer characters, cosmic horror, and more.
