Private Project

Sugar Rot

After a brutal assault by an ice cream man, punk girl Candy becomes host to a mutant baby. As her body transforms into ice cream, those around her see her not as a person, but as something to be consumed. Fueled by a blistering punk soundtrack and dripping with grotesque body horror, this wild exploitation film oozes with feminist subtext.
