The Greasy Strangler

Every year at Sundance one film takes pundits totally by surprise, in 2016 that film was Jim Hosking's THE GREASY STRANGLER. This is a film like no other, a greasy smorgasbord of filth and depravity that is as repulsive as it is sweet – part comedy, part horror, part love story, all greasy mayhem! The kind of film audiences adore and, that once seen, cannot be erased from the mind! THE GREASY STRANGLER tells the story of Big Ronnie, a man who runs a disco walking tour of LA with his son, Big Brayden. When a sassy young thing named Janet appears one day on their tour, it sets off a fierce rivalry between father and son for her affections – it also brings about the appearance of an oily, slimy, inhuman maniac who stalks the streets at night, strangling the innocent – a beast known as The Greasy Strangler!

Critic Reviews:

• “It's vile, it's intrusive, and it's annoying, but it's strikingly, creatively, and impressively so. And, to boot, really freakin' weird.” – Nerdist

• “A grossout smack in the face. Deplorable. Unspeakable. Often funny.” – Guardian

• “It made me chuckle, made me wince a little-and it made me enjoy telling people about it and watching them squint dubiously at me as if they suspected me of making it all up.” – Film Comment Magazine
