Alexander Ullom’s directorial debut, the indie horror-drama ‘It Ends’, explores themes of existential dread and the transition into adulthood. The film follows four recent college graduates—James (Phinehas Yoon), Day (Akira Jackson), Fisher (Noah Toth), and Tyler (Mitchell Cole)—who become trapped on an infinite, two-lane highway while driving a Jeep Cherokee through a forest during a late-night food run. Produced on a micro-budget of approximately $30,000 in Florida by Snoot Entertainment, Aymara Films, and Please Hold Pictures, the film utilizes a ‘hangout horror’ style to reflect Gen Z malaise. To facilitate interior car scenes, the production used a virtual production facility at Florida State University, which required the vehicle to be disassembled and reassembled on a sound stage. Ullom has described the work as a blend of an ‘hang out movie’ and an ‘existential nightmare’, focusing on how characters navigate trauma and uncertainty amidst cosmic forces. The narrative features a unique existential loop where biological rhythms, such as hunger, fatigue, and sexual desire, cease to function, though time continues to move forward without a reset. Following its premiere at SXSW, the film has expanded its theatrical presence. In presence in the United States, States via distributor NEON launched NEON, with a limited release in New York and Los Angeles on August 21, 2026, before expanding followed by a nationwide expansion on August 28, 2026. This rollout included a ‘Director’s Experience’ via the TheaterEars app, providing synchronized commentary from Ullom and producers Evan Barber and Carrie Carusone. Ullom is recognized as part of a rising ‘Gen Z horror’ movement alongside directors like Curry Barker and Kane Parsons. He has been named by Filmmaker Magazine as one of the ‘25 New Faces of Independent Film’. In Italy, I Wonder Pictures has released the film’s trailer and poster ahead of its scheduled theatrical release on October 28, 2026.
