Blu Hunt Archives - Sean Kelly On Movies

A young woman learns a ghastly secret about the man she begins dating in The Dead Thing. Alex (Blu Hunt) is a young woman stuck in a dead-end job and an endless cycle of meaningless online dating connections. That all changes when she meets Kyle (Ben Smith-Petersen), whom Alex instantly develops chemistry with. However, when he seemingly ghosts her afterwards, Alex tries to track Kyle down and learns a ghastly secret. The Dead Thing Synopsis The Dead Thing is a horror romance and the solo directorial debut from co-writer and director Elric Kane, best known as one of the hosts of the Pure Cinema podcast. The new stars Blu Hunt (The New Mutants) as Alex, a directionless woman crashing with her best friend Cara (Katherine Hughes), who herself is dealing with the recent break-up with her fiance Paul (Brennan Mejia). After countless one-night stands, Alex seems to find the perfect guy for her in Kyle, except for one important detail. My Thoughts on The Dead Thing Stemming from a twist that occurs at the end of the first act, The Dead Thing is a film that begins as a romance and steadily progresses into supernatural horror. Even though the turn is somewhat easy to predict, I still believe that The Dead Thing is a film that is best experienced by knowing as few specific details as possible. At the very least, I can say that the film gives a whole new meaning to the term ghosting.
