Upcoming Film Decay Proves that Friendship Is Deadly

Constant loneliness is the worst thing ever known to man. We’ve all been there, not having anyone by our side, having a ton of things that we want to say but nobody to say them to, even desperately imagining that those who left us, either by their own free will or by circumstances beyond their control, are still accompanying us as we go through life. It must be what solitary confinement in prison feels like.
So when Jonathan, a lonely groundskeeper at a theme park, befriends a young woman, all seems well at last. Too bad that she’s dead and her body’s beginning to decay…
That’s the premise of Decay, which is getting both a theatrical and VOD release next month. Read on for more info.
Featuring a “mesmerizing” performance by Rob Zabrecky, writer-director Joseph Wartnerchaney’s vividly nightmarish film focuses on a middle-aged groundskeeper at a local theme park who suffers from a debilitating case of OCD. One day his routine is disrupted by a surprise visitor in his basement: a beautiful young woman who, through a jarring turn of events, ends up dead. Jonathan panics and chooses not to report the dead girl. Instead, he invites her to dinner. Jonathan is happy to have a friend, until the police start closing in, and his mind, and the body of the girl, begins to decay.
Winner of the True Grit Award at the Denver Film Festival 2015, Decay also stars Lisa Howard (The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn – Part 2), Jackie Hoffman (Garden State), and Elisha Yaffe (TV’s “Better Call Saul”).
The “meticulous and engrossing” (Ain’t It Cool News) Decay hits theatres and On Demand April 8th from Uncork’d Entertainment.
