KENTUCKY BOURBON
A SHORT FILM BY TRISTAN AVERY THOMAS | PSYCHOLOGICAL THRILLER | SUBURBAN NIGHTMARE | DARKLY COMEDIC
FADE IN: A new house, a fresh start, and a chance to put the past behind him. For Ivory, a recovering alcoholic, a move to a charming southern suburb with his wife Zoë is the beginning of a better life. But when a friendly neighbor delivers a casserole with a strange taste, Ivory's sobriety is put to the ultimate test.
He's soon thrust into a horrifying fight for survival as a hive-mind cannibal outbreak spreads through the neighborhood. As his perfect life crumbles, Ivory must battle not only his inner demons but also the monstrous reality lurking behind every perfect lawn and polite smile.
Kentucky Bourbon is a dark and witty psychological thriller that asks how far a person will go to save themselves and those they love, and what happens when the cure is as dangerous as the disease.
