Synopsis
The Nice Ones
When Kate joins her boyfriend’s friends at a remote countryside retreat, old wounds resurface as strange lights appear in the sky. As unease grows, members of the group begin to change—becoming unnervingly calm, kind, and “nice.” Dismissed as unstable, Kate struggles to convince the others something is wrong before the force behind it spreads.
The Substance
A fading celebrity decides to use a black market drug, a cell-replicating substance that temporarily creates a younger, better version of herself.
