Monolith (2022)
Monolith centres on a disgraced journalist who holes up at her parents’ empty country mansion to try and salvage her career with a podcast debunking hoaxes. When the story of a mysterious black brick lands in her inbox, it seems the interviewer has struck gold, but as she starts to investigate this strange conspiracy theory, the trail leads uncomfortably close to home, leaving her to grapple with the lies at the heart of her own story.
Lily Sullivan (Evil Dead Rise, Picnic At Hanging Rock) won Best Actress at Total Film’s FrightFest Awards, where Monolith was up for Best Film.
The Australian science fiction thriller has an 84% critics’ rating on Rotten Tomatoes. Forbes hails Monolith as “a masterclass,” adding, “You’ll find yourself hanging on the edge of your seat.”
