Shout! Studios has released a poster and trailer for Frankie Freako, the upcoming horror-omedy from writer-director Steven Kostanski (The Void, Psycho Goreman).
The film centres on uptight Conor (Conor Sweeney) as he attempts to spice up his boring life while spending the weekend alone by calling a party hotline hosted by a dancing goblin promising wild and freaky adventures; check out the trailer below…
Workaholic yuppie Conor Sweeney (star of “The Editor”, “Father’s Day”) has a dilemma: no one in his life respects him! Not his boss, not his coworkers, not even his wife Kristina, who thinks he’s an uptight “square”! Conor sees no way out of this existential rut until one night channel-surfing he catches a bizarre ad for a party hotline hosted by a strange dancing goblin: FRANKIE FREAKO. Conor is entranced by Frankie’s promises of wild and freaky adventures, just a phone call away – could this be the recipe to spice up his flavorless life?
Home alone for the weekend, Conor works up the courage to dial the number for the Frankie Freako hotline. As soon as the call connects, it unleashes CHAOS into his white-collar world, releasing Frankie and his troublemaker friends from their dimensional prison. It’s a race against time as Conor must defeat the rambunctious ruffians and clean up their trail of destruction before Kristina returns from her trip, all while going on an unexpected journey of self-discovery.
Frankie Freako is set for release on October 4th.
