Plot

Behind the kind eyes of a gentle, unassuming fellow... lies the depraved, loathsome delusions of a lunatic. LAY DOWN AND ROT will put a face to the pernicious musings of a sordid internet creep. Based on a real story from the now banned subreddit r/incel, the film explores ownership in a digital world. Follow this detestable chap, as reality collides with his own puzzling fantasy in the search for love.—Sean Burns
