Marshmallow
Question everything.
Directed by Daniel DelPurgatorio
Produced by Hemlock Circle Productions, The Warner Davis Company
A coming-of-age horror film that weaponizes summer camp nostalgia and folklore into a dark, paranoia-soaked survival story.
At a secluded summer camp, timid and introverted 12-year-old Morgan is thrust into a waking nightmare when a once-fabled campfire tale becomes real. As a mysterious figure descends upon the camp, Morgan and his newfound friends must embark on a treacherous journey and uncover a sinister reality buried beneath the surface.
