At a remote estate in upstate New York, newlyweds Leah (Ella Rae Peck) and Shane (Rigo Garay) celebrate their honeymoon, but a pall hangs over their union. She works for the publisher who will be releasing his debut novel, a lightly autobiographical examination of family trauma, alcoholism, and the immigrant experience. Barely suppressed tensions over family trauma would be enough kindling for a blowup, but Leah and Shane's marriage is truly tested by the appearance of two weirdos with entrepreneurial zeal and a half-baked blackmail plot: John (John Speredakos) and Rose (Lorraine Farris). They're looking for investors for John's latest invention, a culinary breakthrough called the Crumb Catcher -- and they won't take no for an answer.

What to Know

Critics Consensus

An impressively assured directorial debut, Crumb Catcher blends absurd politeness, marital tension, and dark comedy into an uncomfortable, wickedly funny home invasion horror.

Namrata Joshi The New Indian Express 08/22/2024
Promising more than it is able to deliver, it’s a case of a genre indie that stops short of becoming a kitschy B Grade classic. Go to Full Review Dennis Harvey Variety 07/22/2024
If you can withstand spending nearly two hours in the company of these grating, argumentative characters, there are rewards to be had in a skillfully wrought, twisty suspense tale. Go to Full Review Robert Daniels RogerEbert.com 07/19/2024

The title of “Crumb Catcher” is all too apt. Skotchdopole sprinkles bits and pieces that add up to very little. Go to Full Review Shikhar Verma High on Films Apr 18
3/5
[Crumb Catcher] is a tense but wildly uneven reworking of the home-invasion subgenre – a social horror that derives thrills from the idea of being over-exposed to the unforeseeable nightmares that find their way to our doorsteps. Go to Full Review Terry Sherwood Film Threat Jan 6
7/10
The picture is a wonderful example of social horror, fear of strangers who are not what they seem, worth a look for the production values well used, and the committed actors. Go to Full Review Tori Potenza MovieJawn Nov 2
Much like the relationships it centers, it's a reminder that collaborative efforts like relationships, or filmmaking require a lot of work and a dash of magic to come together. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

Jonathan C 08/04/2024 In a time when so many movies are the same, this one was different. It had a great cast, beautiful camera work, and fantastic pacing. Reminds me of why independent films are so important today!

Brilliant performances See more Tyler B @MitchellsChin Jan 25 If you’re looking for something fresh, this one is for you. It’s a wicked blend of horror, humor, and tension. For better or worse, the film will take hostage of your attention. See more Timothy P @timop1919 Oct 11 Why did they even let that guy in? This movie made no sense. See more Tom L @RT84451299 Aug 15 Insane romp that ratchets up the tension to a breaking point and then just keeps it going unrelentingly. Truly original story and great work by the actors. The over the top performance of John Speredakos as the psycho waiter was beyond excellent. This is also a movie that can be appreciated equally by both high and low brow horror fans.
