A boy befriends a monster in trailer for Shudder horror Slapface

January 22, 2022 by Amie Cranswick

Ahead of its arrival on Shudder this February, a trailer, poster and images have been released for the hit festival horror Slapface. Based on writer-director Jeremiah Kipp’s short film of the same name, the film follows Lucas (August Maturo), a lonely boy dealing with the death of his mother, as he forms a dangerous friendship with an inhuman monster living in the nearby woods; take a look here…

After the death of his mother, Lucas, a loner who lives in a rundown home with his brother Tom, regularly seeks solace in the nearby woods. With his only “friends” being a group of female bullies, he keeps to himself most of the time. But, after a strange encounter with an inhuman monster, Lucas begins to withdraw from others. When the two reach a tentative trust, a bizarre friendship is born, and Lucas is swept up in a series of primal adventures.

Slapface arrives on Shudder on February 3rd.
