Kino Lorber will be giving writer/director Robert Mockler's psychedelic horror film LIKE ME a theatrical release on January 26th, and with that release less than a month away a trailer has dropped online.
Starring Addison Timlin and Larry Fessenden, LIKE ME has the following synopsis:
A reckless loner (Addison Timlin, FALLEN, LITTLE SISTER) sets out on a crime spree that she broadcasts on social media. After releasing a video of herself robbing a convenience store, she amasses a huge following. While traveling along the coast, she encounters a drifter, an Internet troll, and a paint huffing outsider who are all pulled into her circle of chaos, junk food, and drugs. Robert Mockler's visually arresting debut feature, produced by indie horror veteran Larry Fessenden, takes the viewer into a world of fabricated personalities and offers a thought-provoking portrait of isolation in our increasingly digital world.
Also in the cast are Ian Nelson and Jeremy Gardner.
LIKE ME is said to have an experimental, arthouse style, and that's quite obvious in the trailer embedded below. It's an experiment that didn't have pleasant results for Chris Bumbray – he gave the film a 4/10 review after catching a festival screeninger earlier this year. I have to say, it doesn't look like something I would enjoy all that much, either. I'm sure there are plenty of viewers it will work for, though.
Give the trailer a watch and see if LIKE ME looks appealing to you.
