MERMAID (englische OV) // Fantasy Filmfest Nights // Internationale Premiere
In the organizer's words:
Doug has a knack for ending up at the bottom of every pool - whether it's relationships, drugs or his job as an aquarium keeper in a strip club. When he is made redundant, his luck seems to have run out completely. But then he discovers something in the ocean that changes his life: an injured mermaid. He is immediately taken with the unappetizingly slimy creature with reptilian skin and fangs. A disturbingly tender bond develops between the two, who Doug must protect from all adversity, including cocaine trips, children's birthday parties and bloody outbursts. In the lead role, Johnny Pemberton shines as a lovable outsider and Robert Patrick delivers a wonderfully nasty performance as a crazed dealer. Once again, director Tyler Cornack (BUTT BOY) proves he has a knack for the grotesque. MERMAID is crazy and dark - but also surprisingly touching. A monster movie with heart and bite.
