A24’s undertone Draws Crowd at Los Angeles Screening with Q&A Moderated by Eli Roth

A24’s undertone held a special Los Angeles screening on March 4 at AMC Century City 15, bringing together cast, filmmakers, and a number of high-profile guests for a post-screening conversation moderated by horror filmmaker Eli Roth.

The event spotlighted writer and director Ian Tuason and his supernatural thriller, which centers on a paranormal podcast host whose life begins to unravel after she receives a series of disturbing recordings tied to something far more sinister than she expected.

Following the screening, Roth moderated a Q&A discussion with Tuason and stars Nina Kiri and Adam DiMarco, where the trio discussed the film’s eerie premise, the process of building tension through sound and atmosphere, and the unique challenges of telling a horror story centered on audio recordings and unseen forces.

Also in attendance from the film were producers Cody Calahan and Dan Slater, along with executive producers Daril Fannin, Brit Macrae, and Luke Maxwell.

The screening also drew a number of notable guests, including Anderson .Paak, Ryan Simpkins, Iman Crosson, Catharine Daddario, Stephen Tracey, Sonia Mena, Heidi Wong, Seth Fox, and Annie James, among others.

In undertone, Nina Kiri plays the host of a popular paranormal podcast whose fascination with unexplained phenomena takes a terrifying turn when she begins receiving mysterious recordings that seem to connect her to a malevolent presence. As the recordings grow increasingly disturbing, she is forced to confront a horrifying truth about the voices captured on tape—and what they may want from her.

The film also stars Adam DiMarco, Michèle Duquet, Keana Lyn Bastidas, and Jeff Yung.

Written and directed by Ian Tuason and produced by Dan Slater and Cody Calahan, undertone continues A24’s push into bold genre storytelling, blending psychological horror with modern media culture and the eerie intimacy of recorded sound.
