Okay, so we just got a trailer that blew our minds. Trapped on a couch and forced to play every single level of Pac-Man is the basis for this new oddball horror movie from director Joel Potrykus. “All I’ve ever dreamed about is living on a couch, playing video games with no one bugging me.” Potrykus said in a statement,” RELAXER is the nightmare version of my fantasy.” Fair warning the trailer is uncensored
Synopsis: Doom and gloom are on the way. The Y2K apocalypse can’t be stopped. Abbie’s older brother issues him the ultimate challenge before it goes down: beat the infamous level 256 in Pac-Man and no getting up from the couch until he does so. Abbie’s survival story begins here; inside a rotting living room with no food or water, and a revolving door of numb-nut friends and acquaintances. It’s THE EXTERMINATING ANGEL by way of SLACKER.
