Horror often finds itself in a hard place among fans. The seasoned horror fan will take a lot more convincing to make them scream in terror while watching a new film. But Damian McCarthy’s Hokum will have you cowering behind any surface. In my case, my SXSW badge. I wish I was kidding.
Ohm Bauman (Adam Scott) is a horror writer who is struggling to finish his novel, working through a dark epilogue that leaves no room for hope. But when he embarks on a journey to honor his dead parents, he finds himself captured in his own horror story. The hotel where his parents had their honeymoon serves as his own house of horrors in a twisted kind of folklore.
