MAGGOT BOY - TEASER

Set somewhere between the grey London skyline and the warped minds of its protagonists; Maggot Boy is a twisted revenge tragedy with elements of dark comedy and fiery wit.

Bluebell finally has Kenny Reed out of her life - a possessive customer, in love and obsessed. His deluded mind confuses Bluebell’s job as a sex worker with something more between them, so she cuts him off by calling his ‘manhood’ a maggot. Kenny is sent into a psychotic spin and winds up behind bars where he meets Maguire in a prison canteen, a nervous yet sinister man with a secret. When Maguire claims to have killed a sex worker several years ago, Kenny comes up with a twisted plan to seek revenge on Bluebell. But of course, things do not go totally to plan.  

This was a teaser made by Gas Money Productions, that writer Helena Marrion-Cole has taken to Australia with the hope of developing the project.

Based on the short play Maggot Boy (2012), written by Helena Marrion-Cole, Oscar T.Wilson and Jack Gunner.

Feature length screen play adapted and written by Helena Marrion-Cole (2019), featuring original extracts from Oscar T. Wilson and Jack Gunner.
