A haunting and emotional struggle between a desire to be saved and the knowledge that only you can save yourself, Girl in the Basement asks, “What would you really do to survive?” It juxtaposes poignant vignettes with disturbing acts of violence, showing audiences a psychological drama so disturbing and memorable that they will forget that they have seen no zombies, no vampires, no inbred backwoods cannibals, no desperate flights in terror from an unknown killer. The monster is you.
Synopsis: A young woman is kidnapped by a serial killer. Before he can finish her, he accidentally dies, leaving her trapped in his basement.
Girl in the Basement is the collaborative effort of acclaimed Western Massachusetts filmmaker Jared Skolnick, and independent actress and screenwriter Kt Baldassaro, paired with the special effects prowess of Alex Squiers, and the haunting electro-pop music of Corson Overlord: Jesse Sterling Harrison — all under the hilarious and skilled guidance of producer Robert Savage.
