“one of the most uncomfortable and cringe-inducing films to screen this year…
Crumb Catcher is an insanely impressive directorial feature debut for Skotchdopole.
It’s funny, bizarre, uncomfortable, and an absolute cringe-fest for all the best reasons.
Skotchdopole has secured himself as a writer-director to keep an eye on,
as he continues to refine his skill and explore the depths of depravity
with a clever, humorous voice.”
—Maggie Lovitt, Collider

“Deliciously Devious…
there’s plenty to fall head over heels for in the satisfying thriller.”
—Stephen Saito, The Moveable Fest

“Ella Rae Peck is phenomenal and she really steals every scene she is in,
and the chemistry, good and bad, she creates with Rigo Garay is phenomenal…
Garay takes what his scene partners give him and runs a marathon with it.
The way he feeds off his scene partners is like a charismatic parasite…
John Speredakos has proven himself time and time again
to be an incredible actor”
—Brendan Jesus, horrorobsessive

“Anchored by John Speredakos’ volatile performance as a nightmare version
of the annoying guy who won’t leave a party, “Crumb Catcher” crosses
“Funny Games” with an extended “I Think You Should Leave” sketch,
mixing the violent undertones of a home-invasion thriller
with cringe comedy for an unpredictable ride.”
—Katie Rife, regerebert.com

“Skotchdopole’s greatest success is in weaving these seemingly disparate threads together…
As the night pinwheels from drama to farce to tragicomedy,
his clear, cold, and yet compassionate eye finds strange harmony
in their emotional imbalance.”
—Richard Whittaker Austin Chronicle

“begins as a cringe comedy and becomes a truly suspenseful thriller.
It is equally relentless at both.”
—Fred Topel, UPI

“Chris Skotchdopole’s very impressive directorial debut, Crumb Catcher,
is a slow descent into absurdist thrills.
…the film is anchored by three astonishing performances”
—Andrew J. Eisenman, Elements of Madness

“the best – and most terrifying – thing about the movie
is how true even the most absurdist parts of it are.”
—Olga Artemyeva, Screen Anarchy
