Ever since its landed on the film festival circuit, a new film called Flytrap has been winning acclaim and awards around the world.
Told in flashback, Flytrap centers on Jeremy Crutchley (“Salem”, “Black Sails”), a two arrives in Los Angeles for a teaching job. After arriving and finding a room to rent, he is held at the whims of peculiar housemates Ina-Alice Kopp (Big Gay Love), Jonah Blechman (This Boy’s Life, Another Gay Movie), Gabrielle Stone (Cut!) and Jason Duplissea (“Parks and Recreation”). “We are all trapped” ominously declares Crutchly in voiceover.  We next see a montage of creepy faces, pursuits and guns drawn.
