TOAD ROAD, the first movie from director Jason Banker, debuted at this year’s Fantasia Film Festival in Montreal and we’ve got the first stills, poster and a trailer to boot. The surreal psychological film is a bold attempt at portraying today’s youth culture. Check out the goods below.
Inspired by an urban legend, Toad Road is an intimate meditation on lost youth evocative of Gus Van Sant (with a racy touch of Larry Clark) and a radical deconstruction of genre cinema, a devastating and brilliant object of contemplation and dread, and a journey down unexpected paths.
The movie was produced by Banker himself, in collaboration with Liz Levine and Adrian Salpeter.
