Plots(1)

Neurotic war vet Paul (Luke Sorge) is having a difficult time dealing with just about anything. Increasingly concerned sister Jill (Brenna Otts) hits her breaking point and insists he sees a therapist. Said therapist feels it’s important for Paul to meet new people and all, but forces him to go to a special party, jotting down an address and the secret password that will get him through the door: “Rondo”. Doors do indeed open, and before he knows what’s happening, Paul finds himself plunged into a bizarre criminal underworld of deviancy and blood. All the plastic in the world won’t be enough to contain what’s coming as he becomes the proverbial Man Who Knew Too Much and an absolutely insaaaaaane chain of sinister events slams into gear. Did we mention that this is a comedy? Sort of? (Fantasia International Film Festival)
