GTA V star’s ‘absurd’ horror film about poo isn’t for the faint-hearted-Rebecca Sayce-Entertainment – Metro

Grand Theft Auto 5 star Steven Ogg will turn your stomach in his new horror film as he’s terrorised by a monster that lives in a toilet. Yes, really.

Scared S**tless, directed by Vivieno Caldinelli, premiered at the 25th-anniversary edition of FrightFest, which has seen films involving invisible dinosaurs and strippers fighting evil.

The horror stars Ogg – best known for voicing Trevor in GTA V and playing Simon in The Walking Dead – as plumber Don, who brings his germaphobe son Sonny (Daniel Doheny) to get down and dirty with him at work as he processes the death of their respective wife and mom.

But as they go about their daily business, they are set upon by a terrifying creature which hides in the toilet – plunging them into a life-or-death situation.

With the help of night manager Patricia (Chelsea Clark), the trio vow to stop the beast before it gets into the town’s water system and wreaks havoc.

Following its international premiere at the London event, fans were quick to share their shocked reactions to the ‘wild’ horror film, with some dubbing it one of the ‘highlights’ of the five-day event.

An_Oighear added: ‘I just saw SCARED S**TLESS at Frightfest and was awesome.
@FrightFest.’

DidactOfDeath praised: ‘@_ScaredSh**less @FrightFest was some good s**t. Great 80’s creature feature with fantastic fx and a rockin’ soundtrack. Reminded me of Tremors meets the Deadly spawn. So, whens a blu ray coming out?’

They also listed the film in their top five of the entire event, alongside Demi Moore’s controversial upcoming horror The Substance.

The Cinamatique described it as a ‘wacky horror comedy that lives up to its absurd title’, while The Hollywood News said it isn’t for the faint of heart.

It’s not the only film Ogg appears in at the festival as he starred alongside Chris Jericho in the action-packed wrestling horror Dark Match.

The logline reads: ‘Chris Jericho, the current reigning FTW Champion of All Elite Wrestling, stars in the latest shocker from director Lowell Dean of WOLFCOP fame. Set in the 1980s, a small-time wrestling company looking for a massive payday accepts a huge fortune for a private gig in a backwoods town. What’s the catch?

‘Too late they learn that the community is run by a mysterious cult leader with devious demonic plans for their grudge match. For when the lights go down, Prophet, Kate the Great, Miss Behave and crew are pitted against each other in a real fight for their lives.’

The actor opened up earlier this year about a proposed GTA V DLC focused solely on his iconic character that was unfortunately scrapped.

‘Trevor was gonna be undercover – he works for the feds,’ he revealed.

‘And we did shoot some of that stuff with “James Bond Trevor” – he’s still kind of a f*** up, but he’s doing his best to pretend to be like [a secret agent]. We shot some stuff and then it just disappeared and [Rockstar] never did it, they never followed up on it,’ reported The Loadout.

Scared S**tless has its international premiere at FrightFest 2024 on Monday, August 26.
