Scammerhead

Movie Information

In Brief: The Twin Rivers Media Festival kicks off with the North Carolina premier of Scammerhead, winner of the Best Narrative Feature award at the 2015 Trenton Film Festival and Best Feature at the 2015 Berkeley Video & Film Festival along with receiving multiple other nominations and awards on the festival circuit. Indie writer-director Dan Zukovic (The Last Big Thing) stars as Silas Breece, a sleazy hustler whose schemes run him afoul of the mob after an intercontinental journey in search of one more big score. Also starring Alex Rocco (The Godfather, Batman: Year One), Bruce Glover (Diamonds Are Forever, Ghost World) and Alex Zahara (Horns, Once Upon a Time) Scammerhead is a bizarre blend of black comedy and noir crime drama with more than a few interesting twists. Shot with a minimal budget over seven years on location in far-flung locales ranging from Las Vegas and L.A. to London and Berlin — just to name a few — this intriguing, if uneven, film is a true testament to the perseverance and vision of its creative team.
