Joe Begos’ The Mind’s Eye has been making strong waves throughout the festival circuit with its strong comparisons to the early works of David Cronenberg, a compliment of the highest magnitude! And while we’ve seen bits and pieces of the body horror film, a new trailer has been released that showcases the Argento-esque beauty alongside the extreme telekinetic violence.
The film follows a drifter (Graham Skipper) with telekinetic abilities who targets a doctor who is creating a synthetic telekinetic power serum. Lauren Ashley Carter (Darling, Pod), John Speredakos, Noah Segan (Looper), Matt Mercer, Larry Fessenden, and Jeremy Gardner also star.

“The Mind’s Eye is about Zack Connors (Graham Skipper), whose abilities have kept him off the grid for years until he’s recruited by the mysterious Dr. Slovak. The snowy New England landscape turns into a whirlwind of psychic rage, flying axes, and brutal revenge as Zack does everything in his power to stop Dr. Slovak’s deadly descent into synthetically engineered telekinetic madness.”
The trailer, which features a quote from our own Kalyn Corrigan’s review, can be seen below, courtesy of EW.
The Mind’s Eye will be released in limited theaters and on VOD on August 5th.
