Directed by Bloomquist (Erik) and co-written by both Bloomquists, Self-Help stars Jake Weber (Medium), Landry Bender (Fuller House), Madison Lintz (Bosch), and Amy Hargreaves (13 Reasons Why), and follows a young woman as she infiltrates a dangerous self-actualization community after her mother becomes entangled with its enigmatic leader.

“The tireless team of genre fanatics at Cineverse have built a thrilling ecosystem, and we’re eager to contribute to their uncompromising filmography,”
