Crazy For You

It’s difficult to find love when you’re a serial killer – when Charlie meets the girl of his dreams, he has to keep that slight flaw a secret from her. Will true love win the day? Or will she become another of his unwitting victims? Crazy For You is a romantic-comedy-horror for anyone who has skeletons in their closet. Or dead bodies.

Now available to buy or rent:

Also available as part of the anthology feature film, Minutes Past Midnight.

Reviews 

“…a much needed ray of sunshine, even if the main character has a penchant for killing people. Crazy For You is a refreshing, delightfully British take on the romantic horror comedy genre from one of the UK’s most sought-after screenwriters, James Moran” Horror Cult Films

“Wonderful… wicked dark sense of humour along with a stunning bright and vivid style.” UK Horror Scene

“James Moran’s sublime Crazy For You… is a twisted rom-com about a serial killer who gets an unfortunate urge to kill whenever confronted with polka dots.” Screen Daily

“A brilliantly observed romantic comedy that just happened to have a serial killer as its lead… a film that promises much from its creator.”
Horror Asylum
