Hitting theaters and On Demand March 11, Ultrasound is a mindbending thriller which will have cinephiles perplexed right until the very end. Figuring out the puzzle box behind this movie was a worthwhile experience for me, and I asked co-stars Chelsea Lopez and Rainey Qualley about their takes on the Rob Schroeder directed feature.

Chelsea Lopez plays Cyndi, a frustrated young housewife who finds a connection with a relative stranger named Glen (Vincent Kartheiser). Rainey Qualley is Katie, a woman who is dissatisfied in her relationship with a politician. These are just surface plot points behind Ultrasound, as the feature takes these storylines and subvert them on their respective heads. There is a “life as simulation” theme I dug about the feature, but I don’t want to spoil anything else about the picture.
“I like that it is a script and a movie that makes you think,” said Lopez. ” Everyone can kind of piece together their part of the puzzle but some movies they don’t tie together. They just leave a bunch of questions unanswered. (Ultrasound) has answers when you watch it a second time and a third time. The narrative really ties in together to be understood really well. I was really intrigued by the layers (writer) Conor (Stechshulte) set up.”
