A dark, psychologically invasive horror-thriller that uses a grotesque creature as a manifestation of internalized shame and sexual repression in a closeted young man.

After a small-town wrestling star develops a crush on an openly gay classmate, he is stalked by a grotesque creature that invades his thoughts as he navigates his feelings and struggles to live up to his legacy-obsessed family.
