A school counselor meets with a troubled student where he learns about the boy's intense at-home life, his father's late night desertions, and a monstrous secret beneath it all. "Daddy is a Hunter" by Marcus Fahey Starring John Ortiz (Alien vs. Predator: Requiem, American Gangster) & Margo Seibert (Disclosure Day) #ALTER #horror #shortfilm Connect with the Filmmakers: https://www.instagram.com/marcus.fahey/ https://www.marcusfahey.com/ https://www.youtube.com/@marcusfahey Director's Statement: Forgiveness is a frightening, often bold act for any of us. Especially for those whom we may not think deserve it. I wanted to make a movie that dealt with those themes of understanding and empathy, but for a broken, "dirty" character. In this case, the dynamic between a father and son. In the brief runtime you get with a short film, I wanted to explore a complex father-son dynamic rooted in a son's attempt to understand his father. It can feel sad, it can feel pathetic, but ultimately an attempt at understanding is the only way forward.
