‘SURVIVAL SKILLS’ May Be The Retro-Inspired Horror Film for 2020
If you like the absurdist, borderline horror films like the Adult Swim shorts Too Many Cooks, Unedited Footage of a Bear, This House Has People In It. The new film Survival Skills might be up your alley. Starring Stacy Keach, Survival Skills is a biting police training video from the 1980s expertly narrated (Keach) like so many of the educational videos we remember fondly from a most radical decade. Lost for years and only now recovered, we meet Jim (O’Donnell), the perfect policeman in a perfect relationship in a perfect community, who gets in over his head when he tries to resolve a domestic violence case. Before long, the ugly underbelly of the ‘Good Guys in Blue’ begins to expose itself and Jim decides to take matters into his own hands.
SURVIVAL SKILLS will be available on demand tomorrow, DECEMBER 4
