Levi (Justin Benson) has snagged a no-lease apartment sight unseen in the Hollywood Hills to crash at while he ties up loose ends for his exodus from Los Angeles. He quickly strikes up a rapport with his new neighbour John (Aaron Moorhead), swapping stories like old friends under the glowing, smoke-filled skies of the city. One day, Levi and John witness something impossible in one of their apartments. Terrified at first, they soon realize this could change their lives and give them a purpose. With dollar signs in their eyes, these two random dudes will attempt to prove the supernatural.

Directed and starring, Cosmic Masterminds Aaron Moorhead and Justin Benson (SYNCHRONIC, THE ENDLESS, SPRING), and shot during the pandemic with a pseudo documentary structure, SOMETHING IN THE DIRT is a fun low budget supernatural mystery, where a seemingly supernatural discovery takes two neighbours down an even deeper rabbit hole that blurs the boundaries of fact and fiction.
