Ahead of its release this December, Arrow Video has shared a trailer and images for the Christmas horror-comedy The Leech.
Written and directed by Eric Pennycoff, the film centres on Father David, a Catholic priest who welcomes a homeless couple into his home during a cold December night, but what was a simple act of kindness soon turns into the ultimate test of faith.
Watch the trailer below…
Father David (Graham Skipper, Sequence Break), a Catholic priest struggling to fill the pews in his church, allows a homeless man, Terry (Jeremy Gardner, After Midnight), into his home to escape the December chill. But this simple act of kindness has unforeseen consequences when Terry’s pregnant girlfriend, Lexi (Taylor Gardner, Sadistic Intentions), also decides to crash at the parochial house. Determined to save the warring couple through the healing power of God’s love, David’s ordered existence quickly unravels as he succumbs to the wicked ways of the parasitic pair. Will he pass this apparent test of faith or resort to blood-soaked, Old Testament justice?
The Leech is set for release on December 5th and features a cast that includes Graham Skipper, Jeremy Gardner, and Taylor Gardner.
