Writer/director Kyle Broom's feature debut TABLOID VIVANT will be released into the world later this year, and a trailer has arrived online to help potential viewers prepare for the extreme weirdness the film has in store for them.
Described as "Frankenstein meets Twin Peaks", TABLOID VIVANT tells the story of Max and Sara.
Max is an artist seduced by the allure of fame. Sara is an art critic whose obsessions exceed even his. When she lands a writing gig at a major art magazine, the pair retreats to a cabin in the woods, where Max reveals his strange new painting method. Convinced of its potential, she agrees to collaborate on a piece sure to revolutionize the art world. While both original and mesmerizing, the project reveals something dark and disturbing about their relationship. Like two digital-age Frankensteins, they manage to make a painting come alive – though the unsettling consequences of their success may be more fit for the pages of a blood-soaked tabloid than the chronicles of art history.
Jesse Woodrow and Tamzin Brown star.
The trailer can be viewed below, and while it succeeds at making me interested in seeing the film, it also makes it clear that this is going to be one strange viewing experience. As a character says, "I don't know how to look at something like this."
