Dir: Alex Russell
Cast: Théodore Pellerin, Archie Madekwe, Sunny Suljic

A masterclass in building ever more taut levels of tension and discomfort, writer/director Alex Russell’s psychodrama for the influencer age is amazingly entertaining, darkly funny, and endlessly rewarding.

Los Angeles clothing store worker Matthew contrives his way into the entourage of up-and-coming musician Oliver. An oblivious Oliver thinks he’s stumbled upon a kindred spirit but as the line between friendship and fandom begins to blur how could he know that Matt is in fact playing a game…?

Driven by star-making performances from Théodore Pellerin and Archie Madekwe. LURKER is a spot-on and timely cat-and-mouse portrait of parasocial celebrity obsession.
