Toad Road
Directed by Jason Banker
Produced by SpectreVision, Random Bench Productions
A bleak descent into drug-fueled nihilism and occult dread, where a young man's tentative escape from addiction is derailed by a mysterious woman and the lure of a legendary gateway to hell.
Stuck in a dead end town, young James kills time with his druggie friends, engaging in debauched chemical intake to the point of unconsciousness, until he meets Sara, a sweet new arrival to their group. However, Sara wants James to take her further into the world of narcotics experimentation (just as James was contemplating abandoning this lifestyle), and she also wants him to introduce her to the sinister local legend of Toad Road, a spot deep in the forest that is apparently home to the Seven Gates of Hell.
