Interview: Director Matt Harlock talks ‘Deep Clean’

Director Matt Harlock (American The Bill Hicks Story) and comic artist Krent Able, whose previous short, Ink, C**ks & Rock’n’Roll is live on Vice, have launched a new supernatural horror, entitled Deep Clean, on Kickstarter. In his latest podcast/interview, host Stuart Wright talks to Matt about the film, the Kickstarter campaign, collaborating with comic artist Krent Able and their first film together…

The campaign is LIVE NOW, runs until July 13th. Deep Clean is a supernatural comedy horror, in the vein of films like Trollhunter, Shaun of the Dead and Attack the Block. Official synopsis:

What if the council road crews you see causing traffic jams every day were not what you thought? 16-year-old Alex on a boring work placement with his loser Uncle. What he doesn’t know is that Deep Clean is a secret council unit whose job…is blocking up demon portals.

Halflife Films are working with Ben Wheatley collaborator Dan Martin at 13FingerFX, (Sightseers, Highrise, Free Fire) on the SFX, and Territory Studio, the team behind Ghost in the Shell, Ex Machina & Bladerunner 2049 on the VFX. Mike Chapman, Kaleidoscope (Prevenge, A Dark Song) is exec producing.
