Rufus is pure, unfiltered horror chaos—and it’s a blast. Mars Roberge’s latest is the kind of messed-up, gloriously weird anthology that makes you glad you stayed up past your bedtime.

Freeway Ricky Ross stars as Rufus, a guy who can’t stop telling dark, twisted stories to his friends and family, much to his wife’s very justified eye-rolling. Watching him spin these tales is like sitting in your cousin’s basement at 2 a.m.—funny, gross, and a little bit horrifying, in the best way. The storytelling framework keeps it all tied together, so even though there are five wild stories, it feels like one crazy night rather than random shorts.

The cast is killer. David J and Debra Haden keep things grounded so Rufus’s chaos really pops. Rah Digga is electric in dual roles—funny, scary, totally unpredictable. Jim Sclavunos and Spookey Ruben lean into the absurd like pros, and Monique Parent, Verona Blue, and Jennifer Drake round out a cast that’s game for anything. Everyone clicks, and it makes the whole anthology feel alive and a little dangerous.

And the stories… man, they hit hard. You’ve got a mortician working the wrong night, a singer discovering the dark side of showbiz, adoption gone weird, medical malpractice, and the grim cost of war. It’s gross, it’s smart, it’s funny, and it actually sticks with you. Roberge doesn’t just go for shock—he’s celebrating horror while making you squirm and laugh at the same time.

Visually, the film slaps. The lighting, the angles, the practical effects—they all scream “we made this, and we had fun doing it.” Even the nastiest moments feel real, not cheap CGI. And the sound design? Keeps you on edge even when the story takes a breather. You can tell the crew loved every second of making this weird little world, and it shows.

Rufus has been killing it on the festival circuit, snagging Best Horror Film at the LA Independent Filmmakers Showcase and LA Punk Film Festival, plus Best Supernatural Feature at the New York Sci-Fi & Horror Film Festival, where it also closed the event.

 Funny, gross, smart, and proudly off-kilter, it’s the kind of horror anthology that sticks in your brain—and honestly, that’s exactly the point. Breaking Glass Pictures will bring this wild ride to digital platforms November 25, 2025.
