Interesting film about improv, comedy, and mental illness. Great characters, cool locations, and good performances. Check it out if you like a slow-burn thriller.
Loved the Alt-Right Shark, haha.

Saw this film at the San Antonio Film Festival and was surprised at this tense gem of a thriller. Set in the NYC comedy I thought it would be a "coming of age" story about the lead character Brett but it quickly devolved into a nightmarish take of ambition.
The director led a great Q&A session afterwards and really let us inside the process of the main character's psyche. Check it out wherever it's streaming!

A NYC movie set on the streets, in the summer, a man on the verge of sanity...if you like films like Taxi Driver, King of Comedy, Joker, etc this is a movie proudly in that film lineage!

Caught this film at this the Austin Revolution Film Fest and it was amazing to see it with an audience..and by "amazing" I mean cringe (In the best way). Brett is a really fascinating character and the events that lead to the final third are really interesting to behold! My whole row was tense halfway through b/c we had no idea hat was going to happen next! Check out this indie gem!
