Director's Cut2016

Horror Vault's take

When a delusional crowdfunding backer grows convinced he knows better than the professionals, his fixation on a film production spirals into something far more sinister — and deeply strange. Herbert Blount's homemade 'director's cut' blurs the line between fan passion and predatory obsession in ways that are equal parts darkly comic and deeply unsettling. The film skewers Hollywood vanity and internet culture while delivering genuine menace wrapped in a meta, self-aware package. Featuring a cast game enough to lampoon themselves, it's a gleefully twisted love letter to — and indictment of — the filmmaking world.
