Merl’s got a problem—or rather, a giant one. After discovering an enormous version of himself sprouting from his lawn like a grotesque garden gnome, this shut-in recluse can’t leave his house… and the rent is due in five days. Desperate and broke, he takes on a mysterious new roommate, Larry, a soft-spoken drifter with no luggage and just the right amount of red flags. What starts as an awkward buddy comedy quickly spirals into something far weirder, as paranoia mounts and boundaries—both personal and metaphysical—begin to crumble. Part body horror, part deadpan nightmare, IN THE MOUTH is a darkly funny descent into identity, isolation, and the horrors of shared living.
