Fest Promo Trailer for Single Take Thriller 'Failure!' Featuring Ted Raimi

"If I go down, you go down..." An early festival promo trailer has debuted online for an indie psychological thriller titled Failure!, the latest from acclaimed Mexican genre filmmaker Alex Kahuam. He's premiering this one at FrightFest in the UK, same as with his previous film titled Forgiveness before. Failure! follows James (played by Ted Raimi - best known as Sam Raimi's bother appearing in many of his films) who has a big debt with the bank and is given one hour to choose between financial ruin or murder in order to protect his family. As the hour progresses he finds his home and phone invaded by multiple characters pulling him in different directions, gradually adding to his distress and his unravelling. As well as Raimi, the film also stars Merrick McCartha, Melissa Diaz, John Paul Medrano, Daniel Kuhlman, and Noel Douglas Orput. FrightFest says it's shot "in one single take with no cuts, no tricks and no excuses." Portrayed in three acts, the film's one shot take brings comparisons to 2022's intense BAFTA-winning Boiling Point, and 2015's Victoria. There's not a lot going on in this first look trailer, hopefully the film will have more to offer. // Continue Reading ›
