The lines between real life and reel life are muddied in the story of the Adams family: Toby, Zelda, Lulu and John. While they may vomit blood onto one another, lack boundaries and make frequent use of the f-word, they also face what every family must: change. A captivating portrait of an unconventional family making indie horror films, their feature Hellbender screened in the 2021 Cucalorus Film Festival Convlusions program.
