Creep


Aaron (Patrick Brice) is an optimistic videographer that decides to come work for Josef (Mark Duplass) after answering his ad on Craigslist. All Aaron has to do is record Josef throughout the day and remain discreet about the entire setup. Josef tells Aaron that he'll be recording a series of videos for his unborn son, as he's suffering from a terminal illness and will never be able to see him grow up. While Josef seems strange, the money is too good for Aaron to pass up and he agrees to the task. However as the day progresses Josef becomes increasingly strange and Aaron finds it difficult to tell whether or not some of the things Josef is saying or doing are truly jokes or actually a sign of true danger and mental instability.

PROJECT DETAILS
  • The film will have an iTunes release weeks before becoming available on Netflix.
  • The film was originally getting an on demand release through Radius-TWC in October 2014, but it was never release. Netflix eventually purchased the streaming rights.
  • Actor/co-writer Mark Duplass was quoted saying: "We were interested in the psychological profile of this very, very strange person. We were very interested in how you meet people and don’t quite understand what’s up, but you start to get signs. For us that was intense eye contact, lack of personal space, oversharing, maybe a little bit too much love here and there. But, for me, there’s something wrong with both of these guys. Deeply. This concept of, “who is the creep in this scenario?”"
  • Mark Duplass and Patrick Brice planned this to be the start of a trilogy.
  • Originally titled Peachfuzz.
  • Described as a "found-footage horror comedy."
