In ‘Offseason’, Cosmic Horror And Monstrous Locals Lurk In The Mist [Trailer]
Sometimes you just really want to run away from your hometown. It could be due to your family, your friends, the people around you, or all three. In his latest film Offseason, director Mickey Keating looks at just that but takes it to a rather horrific extreme.
In Offseason:
Upon receiving a mysterious letter that her mother’s grave site has been vandalized, Marie quickly returns to the isolated offshore island where her late mother is buried. When she arrives, she discovers that the island is closing for the offseason with the bridges raised until Spring, leaving her stranded. One strange interaction with the local townspeople after another, Marie soon realizes that something is not quite right in this small town. She must unveil the mystery behind her mother’s troubled past in order to make it out alive.
Watch the trailer for Offseason:
Keating is known for his mumblegore films, or low-budget indies, such as Pod and Darling that are both horrifying and deeply emotional. His works often interrogate what it means to be a person and engage in personal and romantic relationships in the face of monstrosity.
Jocelin Donahue stars in Offseason as Marie. Donahue is no stranger to horror. She’s starred in films such as Ti West’s The House Of The Devil and James Wan’s Insidious: Chapter 2. Joe Swanberg, Richard Brake, Melora Walters, and Jeremy Gardner also star in the film.
Offseason comes to select theaters, On Demand, and digital on March 11.
