The Beta Test

By JIM CUMMINGS, the creator behind:
THUNDER ROAD and THE WOLF OF SNOW HOLLOW

WHEN THE TWILIGHT ZONE MEETS ENTOURAGE

Hollywood agent Jordan has it all. The drive, the success, the connections and a budding career. To top it all off, he's soon to marry his girlfriend Caroline. But then one day a mysterious purple envelope drops into Jordan's mailbox. An invitation to a meeting beyond his wildest dreams. Can he treat himself to a little adventure before it's time to tie the knot? The only problem is that the first taste of forbidden fruit tends to awaken a hunger for more. Before long, his entire existence seems to revolve around that purple envelope and who the sender is. Jordan's carefully constructed facade begins to crumble and as his obsession with persecution grows, the world around him seems to go crazier.

After films like Thunder Road and The Wolf of Snow Hollow, writer-director and actor Jim Cummings has gained many loyal fans. They will be even more so after this unbridledly funny, violent and dark satire about Hollywood Sapiens and the fact that everything has a price, even for climbing careerists. In The Beta Test, it is very high, which further screws the film's wild drive with prestige, the algorithms that measure our lives and hypocrites in various industries.
