About
The Evil Within is a 2017 American independent psychological horror film written and directed by Andrew Getty in his directorial debut, starring Frederick Koehler, Michael Berryman, Sean Patrick Flanery, Dina Meyer, Kim Darby, and Brianna Brown. It was originally titled The Storyteller. The film's conception and development were a personal project of Getty's, who largely self-financed it at an estimated cost of $4–6 million; the film's production entered development hell and took fifteen years to complete. Following Getty's death in 2015, editing for the film was completed by producer Michael Luceri.
