"Open your third eye… and prepare to die!" Mutiny Pictures already released this indie Troma-esque horror film last fall, but we're just catching up with it now thanks to a tip from Twitter. How did we miss this last year?! I Need You Dead is a homemade, gross-out, wacky horror comedy creation made by the filmmaker Rocko Zevenbergen. After a moment of total teenage angst, a young punk soon finds himself at odds with a psychedelic monster of his own creation. It's described by the filmmaker as "the type of party that starts on top of the world, but by the end has your head halfway down a toilet." There is a new hallucinogen going around, but it brings out more than just some good vibes. The film stars Estevan Muñoz, Sidra Morgan-Montoya, Lloyd Kaufman, Tim Coyle, and Michael Morrison. It's streaming on Prime Video now to rent or buy if this is your thing. I have to say, the effects and absurdity are cool enough to get my attention.

Here's the main trailer (+ poster) for Rocko Zevenbergen's I Need You Dead, on YouTube (via Fangoria):

Description from Fangoria: "Follow the exploits of Dood as a new psychedelic has hit the streets, (they get you dummy high, man.) Meet gooey creatures who thrive in ominous silences, and strap yourself in for a weird time… wait, is that a talking hamburger?" After a moment of total teenage angst, a young punk finds himself at odds with a psychedelic monster of his own creation. I Need You Dead is written and directed and produced by genre filmmaker Rocko Zevenbergen, making his feature directorial debut after a few other short films and film projects previously. It's executive produced by Brian Zevenbergen. This originally premiered back in 2020. Mutiny Pictures already released Zevenbergen's I Need You Dead horror direct-to-VOD last fall, starting on November 23rd, 2021. It's now available to watch right here. Anyone into this?
