Will the two be able to break away from their sick obsessions before they are tempted to turn a dark fantasy into reality? So begins GUT, a tightly-drawn psychological thriller that overcomes its minuscule budget with an intriguing pair of characters and constant feelings of dread and paranoia. Director Elias takes his time in introducing Tom and Dan in order to build upon their friendship in a real-world setting.

GUT is a cut above the rest on the Independent film scene.… Expand
