Experience the Horrors of The Man Who Collected Food

By Uncle Creepy
August 2nd, 2011

Every now and again a flick will fly in under our radar that ends up looking pretty damned good. Such is the case with the horror comedy The Man Who Collects Food, which hit DVD from Shriek Show just a couple of weeks ago.

The flick, directed by Mathew Roth, stars Mike N. Kelly, Gary J. Wagner and Lila Miller. Check out the plot crunch, artwork, and trailer below.

Synopsis
Miguel Appet is a serious collector. He must have the color variants, the rarities, the 1950s originals: every food he can find--and keep--in mint condition. No one but his overbearing mother knows that his home, tucked in the quiet suburb of Cibuston, has become a massive museum to comestibles. His neighbors to the right, dad Horace and son Eustice, don’t notice a thing as they plot their next deer hunt. His neighbor to the left, Kelvin Green, is too busy searching for the alien he’s sure attacked him once. And Miguel eats...people. He has to, since eating his precious food is not an option. However, being a cannibal is not as easy as it seems, especially when you have a food collection to take care of...
