Horrorcide

Synopsis

Investigative journalist, Chris Davenport, is hot on the trail of the mysterious Bug-man: a serial killer with a penchant for pulp horror novels. Desperately trying to convince the long-suffering Detective Jamison to listen to his outlandish theories is no easy task and things become all the more complicated when Davenport becomes embroiled in several strange incidents within his tiny community. As he tries to deal with crazy genius doctors, sarcastic book clerks, post-modern voodoo and alien-robot space porn, Davenport discovers that, deep inside all the weirdness, is a link back to his own troubled childhood.
