Scare Me
Want to hear a scary story?
Directed by Josh Ruben
Produced by Irony Point, Artists First
A playful, meta-horror comedy about two storytellers in a cabin where the line between imagination and reality blurs, anchored by competitive creative tension and dark humor.
During a power outage, two strangers tell scary stories. The more Fred and Fanny commit to their tales, the more the stories come to life in the dark of a Catskills cabin. The horrors of reality manifest when Fred confronts his ultimate fear: Fanny is the better storyteller.
