Project Summary
The Well is a low-budget independent feature film produced by Executive Producer Gerard DiNardi (co-producer of Get Out and Sinister 2) and Jess Loren (Global Objects CEO and Space Gas CEO) through Alpha Well LLC. Distribution is in place. The production operates on a profit participation model for all cast and crew, with a $30K cash and $170K grip and electric/labor contribution budget raised. The film will shoot for 12 days in Calabasas (San Fernando Valley, just outside of Los Angeles) from October 17–28, 2026, then moves to a sound stage in Los Angeles November 3–6, 2026. Most scenes involve only two people, and most roles require 2–6 days of filming. A routine real estate deal turns into a fight for survival when a desperate man uncovers a remote household hiding an ancient, energy-vampiric deity — a highly conceptual psychological thriller.
