Movie Review: Wretch (2019)

Nat Harris (Martin L. Washington Jr.), recently sober, is about to rethink that posish as without the booze he begins to see all of the harrowing hallucinations that have plagued his ass for years. Along with that, Nat’s boyfriend Adam has got the full-blown cancer, and is positive he’s going to buy the farm despite Nat’s protestations. Enter: Jean Alexander (Shannon Conley) who owns the hippy-dippy vegan restaurant where Nat works. Speaking of ol’ Joltin’ Jean, she believes our hero has spiritual gifts, and should learn the occult healing juju she’s balls deep into, which is taught by ol’ mystic Pete (Joe Rooney).

A Troubled Man Fights To Save His Lover In ‘Wretch’ – Coming Home This May

This May, Random Media’s horror-thriller Wretch, written and directed by Matthew Dunehoo, is coming home.
