Check out the trailer for Film Mode Entertainment‘s new film Mail Order Monster. It’s being called a “cool, kid-appropriate Frankenstein-esque drama”. It’s a fantastical sci-fi story about the friendship between a robot and a young girl but it also touches on step-parenting and how hard that can be from both sides of the coin. Tell us what you think.
The film was written and directed by Paulina Lagudi with help from Marc Prey on the screenplay. It stars Charisma Carpenter, Josh Hopkins, Emma Rayne Lyle, Bill Billions, and Lea Hutton Beasmore.
After witnessing her mother’s death 3 years ago with her best friend PJ in the car, 12-year-old Sam Pepper has never been able to move on. Her reclusive nature and nerd table membership leave Sam an easy target for bullying. Trauma and puberty cause Sam and PJ to not only grow apart but become rivals.
PJ bullies Sam through ostracizing and humiliating her in front of their classmates. As Sam watches the school laugh at her through the slits of her locker, she realizes shes had enough. Sam orders the parts to build a Monster from a comic book ad and is finally able to give PJ a taste of her own medicine.
Finally, her life is changing for the better. When her father, Roy, reveals he proposed to his girlfriend, Sydney Hart, Sam sees just how much her life’s about to change. Unable to face the state of her family, Sam relies on her monster to keep her from getting a new mom.
Mail Order Monster is set to digital markets on November 6th, 2018.
