One of the hottest indie films making the festival rounds is Honeydew, described as a “twisted retelling of ‘Hansel and Gretel’ with a sinister side.”
Devereux Milburn makes his directorial debut on the film that stars Sawyer Spielberg (Steven Spielberg’s son!) in his introductory role, alongside Malin Barr and Barbara Kingsley.
Originally selected by the Tribeca Film Festival and now set to screen at the forthcoming Sitges Film Festival, Honeydew is also described as “a feverish horror film” set in rural New England.
Strange cravings and hallucinations befall a young couple after seeking shelter in the home of an aging farmer and her peculiar son.
“Sam and Riley’s road trip isn’t going as well as they’d expected, especially when their car leaves them high and dry. Luckily, the couple manages to reach the home of an elderly woman named Karen, who offers to give them shelter and cook them a hearty dinner. But in this horror story, hospitality has its sinister side, and the menu is not at all fit for sensitive stomachs.”
Here are a few fresh images to chew on while we wait for a trailer.
