‘Crust’ Teaser Trailer – A Sock Monster Horror-Comedy from the Mind of Sean Whalen
Sometimes, life socks. Known to horror fans for his role in Wes Craven’s The People Under the Stairs, Sean Whalen is back with a brand new horror-comedy titled Crust.
Whalen directed and stars in Crust, which centers on a sock monster. In the black & white film, “A has-been child actor and owner of a dingy laundromat becomes powerfully vengeful when his collection of lone socks transforms into a murderous monster named Crust.”
Here’s the full official plot synopsis…
Vegas Winters, a depressed washed up child actor, fled Tinseltown and now owns and lives in a rundown laundromat. He finds lost socks in the machines and uses them to soak up all his bodily fluids. One night his tears of anguish turns the pile into a loving sock monster named Crust who becomes his protector and friend.
Meanwhile he has a new girlfriend, a paranormal investigator poking around, and an old two faced costar that is forcing him to join a reboot of their 90s sitcom. As Vegas’s life begins to spiral, Crust eliminates his enemies with deadly consequences.
The cast also includes Alan Ruck (“Succession”), Daniel Roebuck (The Munsters), Rebekah Kennedy (Two Witches), Shawntay Dalon (Detroiters), Felissa Rose (Terrifier 2), Ricky Dean Logan (Back to the Future) and Daniel John Kearney (Dark Circles).
Sean Whalen wrote the script alongside Jim Wald. Felissa Rose and Whalen produced alongside Daniel John Kearney (Dark Circles), and Chris Sergi (I’m Just Fu*king With You).
It’s now been five years since the release of sequel Happy Death Day 2U, Christopher Landon’s sequel to the Groundhog Day-style slasher movie from 2017. Both films star Jessica Rothe as final girl Tree Gelbman, and director Christopher Landon had been planning on bringing the character – and the actor – back for a third installment. So… where is it?!
We’ve been talking about a potential Happy Death Day 3 for several years now, with the ball in producer Jason Blum’s court. Happy Death Day 2U scared up $64 million at the worldwide box office, a far cry from the first film’s $125 million. But with a reported production budget of just $9 million, that first sequel was profitable for Blumhouse. So again… where is it?!
Chatting with Screen Geek this week while promoting her new action-thriller Boy Kills World, franchise star Jessica Rothe provided a hopeful update on Happy Death Day 3.
“Well, I can say Chris Landon has the whole thing figured out,” Rothe explains. “We just need to wait for Blumhouse and Universal to get their ducks in a row.
Rothe continues in her comments to Screen Geek, “But my fingers are so crossed. I think Tree [Gelbman] deserves her third and final chapter to bring that incredible character and franchise to a close or a new beginning.”
Back in 2020, Christopher Landon had revealed that the working title for the third installment was Happy Death Day to Us, said to be “different than the other two films.”
In the meantime, Christopher Landon is directing a mysterious thriller titled Drop for Blumhouse and Platinum Dunes, along with a werewolf movie titled Big Bad for Lionsgate.
