SUNSET ON THE RIVER STYX (UK Premiere)

Dir: Aaron Pagniano. Starring: Phillip Andre Botello, Jakki Jandrell, Cory Vaughn. USA (2021) 80mins

In a swampy Florida City, a metro bus driver named Will lives a repetitive and purposeless life until these routines are interrupted by Ashe, whose bleak existential rhetoric engages him and introduces him to a strange world of the undead. Will follows Ashe into a death cult, led by a charismatic vampire, who regards Ashe’s nihilist outlook on life as endearing. But Will panics, disrupting a ritual before transformation is completed, and Will and Ashe find themselves trapped in the no-man’s-land between life and death, detached from conventional time and space. Will and Ashe must escape this fragmented landscape of past and present demons before it’s too late.
