A surreal, darkly comic critique of suburban numbness and pharmaceutical escapism, where a child's discovery of death goes unheeded by a community too medicated to care.

The Chumscrubber is a dark comedy about the lives of people who live in upper-class suburbia. It all begins when Dean Stiffle finds the body of his friend, Troy. He doesn't bother telling any of the adults because he knows they won't care. Everyone in town is too self consumed to worry about anything else than themselves. And everybody is on some form of drug just to get through their days.
