“The gritty and sensationally gory made-in-Florida, shot in Miami shocker Do Not Disturb follows the tender tale of a honeymooning couple in Miami who take a peyote trip to strengthen their marriage that quickly turns into a narcotic nightmare.
“As they confront their troubled relationship, they discover that this strand of peyote awakens a desire to consume human flesh. Soon their hotel room becomes an insatiable den of love, lust, and desire, from the carnal to the cannibal.”
Bloody Disgusting has the exclusive trailer drop for the film that’s described as “grotesque, looming, filthy, and full of visceral horror.” Adds the release: “[Do Not Disturb is a] thoughtful meditations on the hunger of love, with moments of eerie beauty, this is a daring film whose spell will stay with you, creepy crawling down your spine long after the credits roll.”
Said director John Ainslie: “Producer Rechna Varma and I are delighted to have Do Not Disturb‘s World Premiere at Popcorn Frights in Miami at the historic O Cinema just steps away from the beaches and ocean where we filmed. Having worked on the project for nearly a decade it was important to find a festival that loved and cared about the film as much as we do, and to find that and be welcomed in our adopted hometown makes it all the sweeter.”
