The Beast Comes at Midnight offers a new twist to the werewolf story. An outcast teenage live streamer must enlist the help of four popular kids after he discovers that a werewolf is tracking one of them in their small rural town.

The film’s young cast of up and coming actors include Michael McKeever (100 Acres of Hell), Madelyn Chimento, Samantha O'Donnell, Dylan Intriago, and Kyle Oifer.
