BAD HAIRCUT

description

When a college kid goes to a new place to get a haircut, he discovers that his barber is a psychopath.

Billy Crumpus has never been the confident type. A socially awkward college student with a goofy charm that never quite lands, he hits rock bottom after a humiliating encounter with a group of girls at a party. Seeing their friend spiraling, Billy’s ride-or-die duo, Sonny and Dee, decide it’s time for drastic measures. Their plan? Take him to the one place that’s never let them down: the chair of their favorite barber, the wildly eccentric and possibly deranged Mick. What starts as a simple haircut quickly spirals into a surreal nightmare. As Mick’s behavior grows increasingly unhinged, it becomes clear he may be hiding something far more sinister possibly connected to the recent disappearance of a local college girl. Trapped in a barbershop turned battleground, Billy is forced to confront more than just his insecurities. On the worst day of his life, he might finally discover what he’s been missing all along. BAD HAIRCUT is a wild, genre-bending thrill ride packed with sharp humor, dark twists, and just the right amount of heart. Whether you’re gasping or laughing, one thing’s for sure – you won’t see what’s coming next.

DIRECTOR'S BIO
Kyle Misak has always been a dreamer, but it was in high school that he became a filmmaker. Inspired by many of his favorite movies of the '80s and '90s, Kyle began to tell his own stories his sophomore year of high school using the family video camera. With his naivety, youthfulness, and pure optimism, Kyle wrote and directed his first feature film when he was just 19 years old. Hungry for more, Kyle continued to self-fund, write, produce, edit, and direct over a dozen short films and four feature films to date. Kyle's dream is to continue telling stories that promote adventure, laughter, and thrills for mainstream audiences all around the world.
