Manipulator

Fiction is a lie that tells the truth...

· Horror, Science Fiction

The Manipulator is a multi-POV found footage sci-fi horror film that weaves together a series of disturbing stories — from a journalist documenting a magician’s attempt to return from the dead to paranormal encounters, apocalyptic tarot readings, and mysterious beings hidden deep within the woods. As reality begins to fracture, the film explores themes of isolation, paranoia, and humanity’s desperate search for connection in an increasingly distorted modern world.
