Alex Karpovsky’s new film RUBBERNECK – psychosexual thriller he wrote, directed and starred in – premiered at Tribeca yesterday. A day late, we’ve been provided with a trailer for slow-burning chiller, which you can find below.
Co-written with Karpovsky by Garth Donovan – RUBBERNECK follows:
Paul Harris, who works at a small research facility on the outskirts of Boston. After a weekend tryst with a co-worker leaves him wanting more, his unreciprocated desires gradually mold into an acute infatuation. When Danielle takes interest in a new scientist at the laboratory, Paul’s suppressed resentments and perverse delusions finally become unhinged, triggering a horrific course of events that mercilessly engulf a tortured past and fugitive present.
Karpovsky plays Paul, supported by Jaime Ray Newman (below), Dennis Staroselsky, Amanda Good Hennessey, Sara Murphy, Dakota Shepard and Marianna Bassham. Expect release news following its Tribeca premiere.
