Exclusive ‘Middle Man’ Clip Finds a Surprise in the Trunk
It’s only funny until someone gets hurt.
Meet Lenny Freeman, a man whose dream of being a comedian becomes a nightmare.
Bloody Disgusting has an exclusive clip from Middle Man, opening nationwide on June 9, 2017, featuring “The Walking Dead’s” Josh McDermitt.
“I play T-Bird, the loud, foul-mouthed, misogyny fueled, top rated standup comedian in the town of Lambone,” McDermitt tells Bloody.
“People should see Middle Man for the same reasons I wanted to make it: It’s funny, quirky and different, and Jim O’Heir is brilliant.”
“Lenny Freeman’s dream of being a famous comedian is about to become a nightmare. Not only is he stuck in a dead-end accounting job, Lenny has a bigger problem — Lenny is not funny. When his mother suddenly dies, he quits his job and heads to Vegas in search of fame. But along the way, a mysterious hitchhiker lures him into a desert-town killing spree with dark and twisted results – as the bodies pile up, Lenny becomes funnier and funnier.”
The film is written and directed by Ned Crowley (“Parting Words”), and produced by Bill Fortney and Roger Petrusson. Middle Man also stars Andrew J. West (“Geek”, “The Walking Dead”), and Anne Dudek (“Mad Men”).

‘Rose of Nevada’ Exclusive Clip Gives Ominous Warning from the Past in Hallucinatory Time Travel Mystery
A strange neighbor’s forboding words act as an ominous warning for the experimental time-traveling voyage ahead in our exclusive clip from Rose of Nevada.
Rose of Nevada opens in New York and Los Angeles theaters on June 19, 2026.
Watch the exclusive clip below, which sees the disoriented Mrs. Richards (Mary Woodvine) accost Nick Dyer (George MacKay), suggesting she knows him from her past, before he embarks on a trip to sea that will change everything.
In the film, “Three decades ago, the Rose of Nevada vanished at sea, along with its crew. Now, it has returned. In a remote fishing village, its reappearance is embraced as an auspicious sign, with the local citizens convinced the luck of their economically devastated community may turn, if only the ship sails again. Joining the crew is Nick (George MacKay), desperate to provide for his young family, and Liam (Callum Turner), a mysterious drifter eager to escape his past. After a successful voyage, they return to harbor, only to find that nothing is as they remember it.”
Edward Rowe, Francis Magee, Rosaline Eleazar, and Adrian Rawlins also star.
Written, directed, edited, and scored by Mark Jenkin, Rose and Nevada closes out the filmmaker’s Cornish trilogy that also includes shot-on-film folk horror nightmare Enys Men and 2019’s Bait. All three films in the experimental series are set along the Cornish coast and were shot on a 16mm Bolex camera.
It’s also worth noting that Woodvine, who appears in the below clip in effective age makeup, and Rowe also starred in the trilogy’s previous installments.
The film is described as a “hallucinatory time-travel mystery.” The press release notes, “Jenkin conducts a cinematic séance, conjuring a portal into another world that forces us to confront the past and our relationship to it.”
