While Kevin Smith aims to release his horror film Killroy Was Here as an NFT (non-fungible token), writer-director Norith Soth‘s religious-horror Nicodemus is allegedly not only the first horror film NFT, but also the first ever motion picture NFT. So exclaims the film’s press release.

“A young Christian is so devoted to God, he seeks to uncover the truth about Jesus. This boy faces a reality beyond his wildest imagination when he discovers that The Bible is predominantly filled with stories of alien visitations – further, he realizes that a new invasion is about to occur.”
