Lake Michigan Monster

About

Picture a SpongeBob reimagination of Robert Eggers’ The Lighthouse directed by a feverishly drunk Guy Maddin and you are starting to venture into the silly and inventive mind of Ryland Brickson Cole Tews. His feature debut shot in retro black and white on a shoestring budget is not just another ode to the classic monster movies of yesteryear. With originality and creativity totally off the charts this is an ADHD fever dream of nautical derring-do and monster mayhem. Following a decisively drunk logic and overflowing with playful visuals, ingenious special effects and silly jokes, Lake Michigan Monster is a low-cost but high-genius urban legend guaranteed to appeal to the big kid in all of us.
