Eyes Wide Shut meets Office Space, The Player and Black Mirror in The Beta Test, the acclaimed thriller from Jim Cummings, creator of Thunder Road and The Wolf of Snow Hollow.
A ruthless, manipulative, and soon-to-be married Hollywood agent receives a mysterious letter inviting him to an anonymous sexual encounter. After some uncertainty he accepts, but euphoria turns to paranoia as he becomes ensnared in a sinister world of lies, infidelity and murder.
Strikingly shot and with pitch-perfect performances that will make you squirm in your seat, The Beta Test is a stylish, scathing satire of preening toxic masculinity, the dangers of technology, and the hollowness of Hollywood success.

A mad little thriller
Nice collectors set for a relatively obscure film from Jim Cummings. Packaging and features are both decent for this small a release. Film was very enjoyable. Jim Cummings plays unhinged, damaged everymen really well. And of course we get at least one full on breakdown scene as with his other films, and he delivers it in reassuringly entertaining fashion.
