Meet Don (Steven Ogg, THE WALKING DEAD, DARK MATCH) and Sonny (Daniel Doheny, BRAND NEW CHERRY FLAVOR, DAY OF THE DEAD), a father and son dealing with the loss of Sonny’s mother. It hasn’t been easy for them, and Sonny’s grief manifests as germophobic tendencies. Don’s a plumber, and to help Sonny work on his newfound fear, he insists that his son tags along on a job for a little unofficial exposure therapy. They head to the Palmer Estates Apartments, also home to Professor Robert (Mark McKinney, KIDS IN THE HALL, SUPERSTORE), a government scientist who has smuggled a top-secret—and live—experiment into the residential building after an explosion destroys his clandestine lab. The blue-collar duo thinks this crapper call is a one-and-done, but when Professor Robert’s pet project escapes and starts to eat the residents, this routine job becomes a total shit-show!
With stellar creature design by Canadian practical FX boss Steve Kostanski, SCARED SHITLESS is a gore-filled horror-comedy driven by Ogg, Doheny, and Chelsea Clark (GINNY AND GEORGIA, THE PROTECTOR), who co-stars as Patricia, the building night manager and voice of reason. Helmed by director Vivieno Caldinelli, whose breakout short PORTAL TO HELL starring the late Roddy Piper had audiences cheering for the working everyman, he’s back to champion the unsung maintenance worker. Known for his comedic skills, with SEVEN STAGES TO ACHIEVE ETERNAL BLISS, THIS HOUR HAS 22 MINUTES, and BARONESS VON SKETCH on his resume, Caldinelli joins forces with writer Brandon Cohen and producer Lewis Spring to create an ’80s-inspired creature feature tailor-made for Fantasia’s audience. – Carolyn Mauricette
