The trailer has a fun indie rock vibe coupled with 90’s Trapper Keeper graphics. Drew looks amazing and the make-up on Buckley looks phenomenal. Awesome work by make-up artist Beatrice Sniper.

MissUnderstood Monster is an 1980’s/1990’s rock and roll narrative with seizure inducing visuals. It’s relate-able and nostalgic at the same time, with a recipe of whimsical dismay and remnants of childhood horror.

“Heather Drew does a great job as Laura, trying to hold her life together while dealing with the creature. And Heather Buckley is a force of nature as the creature, chewing the scenery and knowing how to make the creature charmingly annoying.”
“A fun indie rock vibe coupled with 90’s Trapper Keeper graphics... Lindsay Serrano is an up-and-coming director to watch with a dark and satiric comedic vision.”
