Heads up, thriller fans! I’ve got something that you might want to check out. Low Life is a tense thriller that situates itself directly in our modern digital era, while also playing on a classic cat and mouse premise. Director Tyler Michael James manages to blend a very modern style with more of a classic thriller approach, while tackling a tricky subject as the center of his film.
Benny Jansen (Wes Dunlap) is a streamer who makes videos of himself tracking down and exposing child sex predators. He poses as underaged girls online and waits for older men to strike up a conversation. Once the interactions reach a certain level and a meet-up is requested, he shows up and busts them on camera.
His current project was brought to him by a local teenager and fan of his channel named Nicole (Lucy Urbano) who suspects that her friend’s father is a predator.
