"I guess I don't understand why the customer would want to sweep up their own crumbs?" Good question. Glass Eye Pictures has revealed a teaser trailer for an indie dark comedy called Crumb Catcher, marking the feature directorial debut of filmmaker Chris Skotchdopole. This is premiering at Fantastic Fest down in Austin, Texas this week, with no official release date set yet - only more festivals. A newlywed couple is held captive in a remote lake house by a maniacally optimistic inventor and his sour wife who are desperate to finance his dream project with a half-baked blackmail plot. Fantastic Fest describe it as "a chamber piece that melds extreme anxiety with the worst salesmanship imaginable. Every single character is hilariously despicable in their own way, and each motivated by selfishness and ego." Starring Rigo Garay, Ella Rae Peck, John Speredakos, Lorraine Farris, and Rebecca Watson. Keep an eye out for this sneaky film.

It’s been 201 years since Mary Shelley’s “Frankenstein” was originally published, without her name on it. That injustice was rectified a few years later, but it’s still happening today. “Depraved” doesn’t merely play off of the ideas and themes of Shelley’s groundbreaking novel; it adapts it fairly closely — albeit in the present day — and somehow the movie doesn’t even mention her in the credits. “Depraved” indeed.
The latest film from Larry Fessenden, directing his first feature since 2013’s “Beneath,” tells the story of an army medic who dreams of putting mutilated soldiers back together. Henry teams up with — oh, these on-the-nose names! — Polidori, the heir to a pharmaceutical empire, to steal body parts and raise the dead. As you can imagine, Henry’s girlfriend Elizabeth (Ana Kayne) is highly skeptical.
But, shirking tradition, Fessenden’s screenplay doesn’t tell the “Frankenstein” story from the mad scientists’ perspectives.
