Frankie Freako
Steven Kostanski writes and directs this Canadian film in which a man's (Conor Sweeney) phone line becomes the conduit through which miniature evil forces—led by rock 'n' roll goblin Frankie Freako—infiltrate his life. When these tiny demonic beings are unleashed, absurdity meets horror in a grotesque and delirious spiral.
Frankie Freako marks the return of Steven Kostanski (Psycho Goreman) with a horror comedy that pays homage to the little monsters of the 80s, from Gremlins to Ghoulies. The film captivates with its dark humor, its baroque visual universe, and its ability to blend nostalgia with contemporary madness. An ideal work for a festival evening where you want to laugh as much as you want to jump.
