A loser gets dumped. A weird experiment goes nuts. A dangerous DANCE FREAK runs wild.
CHICAGO PREMIERE! In a secret government facility, a team of scientists have done impossible, indescribable things. Genetic mutations, inter-dimensional experiments: nasty top secret stuff. They played GOD. And like GOD, they are all probably dead. There’s also some dancing.
This is the cinematic directorial debuts of Robby Rackleff and Alan Resnick (Unedited Footage of a Bear, This House Has People In It, Mirror). The filmmakers only had $45,000 to make this movie and they ran out of that money almost immediately so a lot of that stuff is just implied through dialogue.
Join us for a Q&A with the directors after each screening.
Robby Rackleff & Alan Resnick, United States, 2025, 90 mins, DCP
