I am a life long fan of all cinema as well as the writer/director/producer of the upcoming Moderngrumble. I use this site for rating new and old films, meeting new like minded friends, and collaborators, and promoting my film which you can find out more about in Mubi’s Production Notes where I detail the crowdfunding journey we undertook to realize the below trailer. I can honestly say that we would not have made it this far if not for Mubi, and the great filmmakers and fans, I have met here. All hail Mubi!
Moderngrumble is the coming of age tale of a young monster and possible messiah. A road movie through the deep South but not the one we know. This is an alternate version of the South that has developed according to William Blake’s ‘Song of Urizen,’ a creation myth that holds strange ideas about life, love and worship. The film’s visual style is heavily influenced, not by the titans of horror cinema but art cinema; Tarkovsky, Bresson, Ozu, and the like. And as such will result in a horror film quite unlike anything we have seen before in mainstream or independent horror.
