There’s DIY horror, and then there’s ‘e made a whole damn possession movie for the price of a haunted toaster’.

Enter A Possession in Lincoln County, the first in-house production from Found TV, and a clear sign they’re done hosting nightmares and ready to start making their own.

Behind the chaos are husband-and-wife duo Louie La Vella and Monica La Vella, who pulled this thing together on a shoestring $10,000 budget. Louie directs, Monica writes, and together they’ve cooked up something that leans hard into the nerve of found footage.

A man starts documenting his wife’s battle with cancer, which is already heavy territory, but when her condition turns terminal, things take a hard left into the abyss. Desperation kicks in, logic goes out the window, and suddenly we’re dealing with ancient rituals, deals with the Devil, and the kind of choices that never, ever end well.

What follows is exactly the kind of downward spiral you want from this genre: fragmented footage, escalating madness, and a growing body count as things get out of control. Kidnappings, occult ceremonies, and a creeping sense that every step forward is just digging the hole deeper.

Matt Gallagher leads the descent as Jake, the husband whose good intentions rot into something far more dangerous, while Sabrina Knappett plays Juliet, the dying wife at the centre of it all. Supporting them are Hannah Brennen as a nurse caught in the fallout, and JoAnn Bundock as the psychic who nudges things from bad to absolutely cursed.

According to Louie La Vella, the whole project was about proving a point: you don’t need a mountain of cash to make something effective, you need a clear vision and the nerve to follow it through. It’s a philosophy baked right into the bones of found footage as a genre, and this looks like it’s embracing that rather than sanding it down.

Set to premiere on Found TV later this year, A Possession in Lincoln County isn’t just another indie horror flick, it’s the platform planting a flag and saying, “Yeah, we make them now.”
