The Greasy Strangler
BULLSHIT ARTIST!
Directed by Jim Hosking
Produced by Timpson Films, SpectreVision
A deliberately grotesque, surreal comedy-horror that blends absurdist humor with slasher violence and a dysfunctional father-son dynamic set against a disco backdrop.
Ronnie runs a Disco walking tour with his son, Brayden. When a sexy woman takes the tour, it begins a competition between father and son for her love. It also signals the arrival of an oily strangler who stalks the streets at night.
