Rubberneck

Starring a 30something loner and the young object of his desire - a beautiful co-worker he once spent a romantic weekend with - the film tells the story of an escalating psychosis and its devastating aftermath as it spins out of control.

Starring a 30something loner and the young object of his desire - a beautiful co-worker he once spent a romantic weekend with - the film tells the story of an escalating psychosis and its devastating aftermath as it spins out of control. Better known for his appearances in contempo US comedies of the indie persuasion (think recent hit series «Girls»), director Alex Karpovsky casts himself in the lead of an imposing thriller that gets under your skin by virtue of a lingering sense of unease the director carefully cultivates throughout the film. Constantly electrified under a seemingly serene surface, "Rubberneck" adds a touch of suspense to a morbid psychological portrait that treads fearlessly into some of the darkest corners of human desire and obsession.
