Run time: 92 min. | USA
A dramatic comedy set in small town Rhode Island, brings together elements of depression, romance and self exploration among a dysfunctional family of men. Lonely and frustrated after a bitter break up, Caleb warns his younger brother against women, especially the pretty young thing he's bringing home for the holidays. His indifferent opinion and steely resolve is put to the test as his attraction to Peter's girlfriend begins to grow. The Vicious Kind features a very well written script and inspired performances by Simmons, Scott and Frost. This screening is co-presented with the Marfa Film Festival.
