Writer/Director Harrison Atkin’s Lace Crater premiered at last year’s Toronto International Film Festival. Not only did one of our own love the film (review), but her description of the film as an odd blend of comedy and gross body horror that transcends its mumblecore leanings definitely made this a must watch.  Now, thanks to Invincible Pictures, we can.

Starring Lindsay Burge, Peter Vack, Chase Williamson, and Keith Poulson, Lace Crater opens theatrically in NYC and exclusively on FlixFling VOD on July 29, 2016.  The film opens theatrically in Los Angeles on August 5, 2015, with a national rollout to follow.

Plot Synopsis
All Ruth (Lindsay Burdge) wanted was to get away for the weekend. Escaping to the Hamptons with friends after a bad breakup, she finds an unexpected connection with Michael (Peter Vack), a stranger who shows up in her room one boozy night. They have great chemistry, and she finds herself inexplicably drawn to him. There’s only one problem: Michael’s a ghost, and a one night stand with him leaves Ruth with aftereffects that can only be described as supernatural. As she suffers through mucous-laden night sweats, glitchy hallucinations, and the occasional tar-black ooze, her friends become too disgusted to support her. Ruth must figure out for herself if she can reintegrate into society – or if she even wants to.
