Andy Farnsworth of SLC Fanboys sat down with the directors of Summer of '84, a Sundance film that echoes The Goonies, Stand By Me and Stranger Things. It's a horror movie with lots of heart and humor - demonstrated when actor Caleb Emery crashed our interview! Summer of '84 follows conspiracy-theorist Davey as he and his best buds decide to spend their summer discovering the truth about his neighbor Mr. Mackey, convinced that he is the local serial killer plastered all over the news. Delivering the camaraderie, adventure, mystery, joy and retro nostalgia of The Goonies, Stand by Me, and Stranger Things, Summer of '84 will leave you hanging on the edge of your seat and rethinking everything you thought you knew about your safe suburban neighborhood. Directors Francois Simard, Anouk Whissell and Yoann-Karl Whissell got their big break with 2015's Turbo Kid. Written by Matt Leslie and Stephen J. Smith, this was featured on the 2016 'Blood List' selection of the best dark genre screenplays. |
