Amateur occultist Marcus J. Trillbury, aka Onyx the Fortuitous, is struggling at home and work, but his dreams seem to be answered when he lands a coveted invitation to the mansion of his idol Bartok the Great for a ritual to raise the spirit of an ancient demon. As Onyx and a fellow group of devotees join Bartok to prepare for the ceremony, the getaway of his dreams soon takes a nightmarish turn and Onyx must decide what he’s willing to truly sacrifice in order to meet his destiny.

The film is based on director Andrew Bowser’s viral character of the same name, Onyx, who has racked up over 300 million plus views online and has over 1 million TikTok followers.

Andrew Bowser directed his first feature, “The Mother of Invention” in 2009 and it debuted at The Hollywood Film Festival that year. The following year, he crafted the found-footage horror/comedy “Jimmy Tupper VS The Goatman of Bowie” which had its premiere at the 2010 SXSW Film Festival in Austin. In between that feature and his next, he began directing music videos and short films that eventually led to his third feature, “Worm” which premiered at Seattle International Film Festival in 2013 and was nominated for the New American Cinema Award. That same year, he began working full-time for Nerdist Industries (later Legendary Digital Networks). In his 5 years at Nerdist, he has helmed a number of the company’s most viewed videos, and directed the bulk of their narrative branded content. He wrote and directed all 8 episodes of “Welcome to the Shadow Zone”, a web series featuring his viral character, Onyx The Fortuitous and completed a proof of concept short “House Mother” just last year as a pitch for a horror feature. He has worked with Funny Or Die, Overwatch League, and companies such as Chrysler, Toyota, Twix, Warner Bros, Blumhouse and more. He acts as “in-house Director” for Nerdist while also maintaining his own successful YouTube channel bolstered by nearly 200,000 subscribers. Just last year, he created the short film “The Mystic Museum” as a proof of concept for a television series. In 2020 Andrew wrote and directed several short films including "Little Willy", "Self Tape" and "Thrill Me!". Most recently, he has been working on a feature film based on his viral character called "Onyx the Fortuitous and the Talisman of Souls". Read less
