So what exactly will survive after a nuclear disaster? Cockroaches and mold. With resiliency like that, you’d have to imagine that sooner or later some horror director would tap the funky fungus to be the star of a film … and Neil Meschino is just that director. Read on for the details.
With the early 80’s war on drugs as a backdrop, Mentally Ill Pictures presents Mold!, starring Ardis Campbell, Robert Fattorini, Chris Gentile and Lawrence George. As you’ll see by the trailer below, this horror-comedy is a definite case of schlock and awe! Director Meschino is currently self-distributing the film online. You can check it out at the official site, Moldthemovie.com.
Synopsis
Set in 1984, when the war on drugs was at its height, the story concerns a strain of mold developed by the government to wipe out Colombian coca fields. Unfortunately, during a demonstration the mold gets out of control and proves to be deadly to more than just vegetation.
