Baby Marvin

1968. A horrifying scene. Blood soaked Marvin holds a gleeful baby, stares at the ax and declares, “I did it.” An otherworldly voice corrects him, “We did it.”

A few days earlier, Marvin’s 18th birthday. An avalanche of betrayal and loss destroys his plans for independence from his glamorous yet monstrous mother. Marvin is heartbroken, but his mirror image is angry….very angry. He provides the support Marvin needs to seek justice. A penultimate moment has Marvin replicating the iconic Baby Marvin face paint he wore as the 4 year old face of President Eisenhower’s Safe Driving Campaign in 1954. His mother’s mantra from those days, “This is what success looks like.” A glance at himself and his mirror image donning the iconic makeup, the look of innocence lost forever, “You were right, Mother.”

A psychological, supernatural thriller about freedom, family and the things we bury when no one is watching.
