Dylan Dario

Dylan Dario, a name that’s been floating around indie film circles lately, is mostly catching buzz for “Lake George” (2025), and honestly, that’s not really a surprise if you’ve seen his work in “Everything Ends.” The guy’s got an eye for the offbeat, the kind of filmmaker who’d rather make you uncomfortable than bored—refreshing, right? “Lake George” is shaping up to be exactly that sort of project: moody, restless, a little bit weird in all the right ways. People who’ve gotten early peeks are already talking about the tension, the way the lake itself almost becomes a character, and how Dario doesn’t spoon-feed you a simple story. Instead, you get all this layered drama and slow-burn suspense, with characters who feel like actual humans—flawed, anxious, sometimes ridiculous. With “Everything Ends,” Dario already proved he wasn’t just another director chasing festival clout; he’s got his own voice, and he’s not afraid to make things messy. His movies play with endings, uncertainty, and that creeping feeling that life doesn’t always give you closure. “Lake George” is maybe his boldest swing yet. There’s talk about the cinematography being gorgeous, but also kind of unsettling, like you’re supposed to notice every ripple in the water and wonder what’s underneath. No neat answers, no tidy bows—just vibe, tension, and a whole lot of questions. If you like your movies with a bit of edge and ambiguity, keep an eye on Dylan Dario.
