Indie horror anthology Rufus will be released on VOD on November 25 via Breaking Glass Pictures.
Former drug kingpin “Freeway” Ricky Ross stars as Rufus, a man in the hood who tells five disturbing stories to his family and friends against his wife’s will.
Written and directed by Mars Roberge, the tales include a mortician working on the wrong night, a singer uncovering corruption in entertainment, the dark future of adoption, chilling medical malpractice, and the haunting cost of war.
David J (of Bauhaus), Debra Haden, Rah Digga (Thir13en Ghosts), Jim Sclavunos (of Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds), Spookey Ruben, Monique Parent (Creeping Death), Verona Blue (V/H/S/99), and Jennifer Drake round out the cast.
“Mars Roberge has crafted a bold, provocative, and unforgettable anthology that pushes the boundaries of horror and social commentary,” said Breaking Glass CEO Rich Wolff. “The film’s mix of visionary storytelling, genre-bending style, and a daring ensemble cast makes it a perfect fit for Breaking Glass Pictures. We believe Rufus will resonate with fans of cutting-edge independent cinema who crave stories that both entertain and challenge convention.”
“Richard Wolff got my film from the start and shares a lot of my aesthetics — two east coasters from punk music backgrounds,” added Roberge. “I did my homework and, after Deborah Twiss told me she still considers BGP family since 1997, that sealed the deal.”
