ANGELIKA’S NOTE

While the Duplass Brothers were shooting THE PUFFY CHAIR, a crew member raised the question "what's the scariest thing you can think of?" Someone immediately said "a guy with a bag on his head staring into your window." And with that, BAGHEAD was born. Directing and writing team Jay Duplass and Mark Duplass craft "a wildly funny parody of low-budget horror cinema" (Screen Daily) with this Sundance and SXSW Official Selection. At once funny, truthful, endearing, and even a bit scary, BAGHEAD stars Oscar nominee Greta Gerwig (FRANCES HA, 20TH CENTURY WOMEN) Steve Zissis (THE FRONT RUNNER; JEFF, WHO LIVES AT HOME), Ross Partridge and Elise Muller.

SYNOPSIS

Spurred on by a colleague’s success, four struggling filmmakers (Steve Zissis, Ross Partridge, Greta Gerwig, Elise Muller) endeavor to jump-start their careers. Together, they retreat to a cabin in the haunting back woods of Big Bear, California, where they hatch an idea for a new film – a horror flick about a guy with a bag on his head who torments people. But when romantic interests crisscross and their story comes to life, they find finishing the script may be the least of their concerns.
