An Unsettling Inventor Overstays His Welcome in 'Crumb Catcher' Trailer [Exclusive]

Ryan O'Rourke is a dedicated film and television writer with a passion for horror, sitcoms, and animation of all kinds.

The Big Picture First-time director Chris Skotchdopole is putting a new spin on the home invasion thriller with his debut feature Crumb Catcher. Premiered at Fantastic Fest last year, the film follows a pair of uneasy newlyweds whose honeymoon is crashed by two strangers hawking their latest invention, the titular Crumb Catcher. They have no intention of leaving until they get their money and quickly overstay their welcome in an uncomfortable and deeply troubling visit.

From the moment John enters Leah and Shane's home, he exudes entrepreneurial obnoxiousness, commenting on their paintings and calling himself "somewhat of an artist" because of his inventions. The footage becomes more anxiety-inducing as he begins his presentation, with flashes of Leah and Shane's wedding hinting at the blackmail he and Rose hold over the pair.

Skotchdople approached his directorial debut with a particular vision for portraying his characters. In a statement shared with the trailer, he explained how the goal was to portray both the young couple and their unwelcome house guests as two sides of the same coin with terrifying implications for what the future may hold for the newlyweds.
