One of the films down at SXSW that I was excited to see was Youssef Delara and Victor Teran’s psychological thriller, SNAP. While I may not be able to see it on opening night, this teaser has inspired me to try and track it down by any means necessary. The film fllows Jake Hoffman as he battles a menacing inner demon that causes him to spiral out of control after a young social worker deflects his romantic advances, all to the tune of some hardcore dupstep.
The below festival teaser gives you an idea of the tone and the unstable madness that we will encounter in the film and while there is no dialogue to support the notion of a quality script, we can only pray this ones turns out as good as the plot and concept make it sound. Check out the teaser and let us know what you think.
Jim is a painfully shy, socially awkward music savant whose inner demons get stirred up when he develops an obsession with Wendy, a young clinical social worker, who is drawn to Jim by her naïve desire to save people. His fixation grows more menacing after she rejects his romantic advances and Wendy is forced to seek out the counsel of her mentor, Kevin. Together they attempt to unravel the secrets of Jim’s inner torment before it spirals out of control. A raw psychological thriller set in the underground world of dubstep DJ scene, SNAP takes us on a dark and terrifying journey into the depths of the psychopathic mind as it threatens to explode into horrific violence.
Starring Jake Hoffman (CLICK), Nikki Reed (TWILIGHT), Thomas Dekker (KABOOM), and Scott Bakula (QUANTUM LEAP), SNAP is written by Victor Teran (BEDROOMS) and co-directed by Youssef Delara (FILLY BROWN) and Victor Teran. It is produced by Amir Delara (FILLY BROWN), Ryland Aldrich, Victor Teran and Youssef Delara.
