Overview
"Devilment is a horror-thriller with dark fantasy elements about a videogame designer who finds her and her younger brother's life forever changed after they encounter an infamous video game with gruesomely metamorphic properties. Examining themes of abandonment, transformation, and the inability to love, the film concentrates on a young woman involuntarily thrust into a role of motherhood as she begins to suspect her brother is experiencing a grotesque metamorphosis after he plays a rare video game. The script serves as a natural progression in my body of original work as the fears associated with desertion by a loved one, and the relationship between the human body and the inevitability of transformation and degeneration, are subjects frequently explored in my writing." -- Abstract
