Having just premiered at the SXSW Film Festival in Austin, Texas, Bloody Disgusting has the above new shot from The Alchemist Cookbook.
The film hails from writer/director Joel Potrykus, whose previous films include his Animal Trilogy — Buzzard (SXSW, 2014), Ape (winner of Best Emerging Director at the Locarno Film Festival, 2012), and Coyote (2010).
In the film, “Young outcast Sean has isolated himself in a trailer in the woods, setting out on alchemic pursuits, with his cat Kaspar as his sole companion. Filled with disdain for authority, he’s fled the daily grind and holed up in thewilderness, escaping a society that has no place for him. But when he turns from chemistry to black magic to crack nature’s secret, things go awry and he awakens something far more sinister and dangerous.”
Ty Hickson and Amari Cheatom both star.
