NEWS x MUSE Michael Sandoval talks with the star of Mr. Crocket, Elvis Nolasco about the film going from a Bite Size Halloween short to a full length movie.
MR. CROCKET takes place in the year 1993. SUMMER BEVERLY’S world is turned upside down when the love of her life, her husband, JERREL, succumbs to cancer. On her own, struggling to support herself and her nine-year-old son, MAJOR, things couldn’t possibly get any worse for Summer. Or so she believes, until the trauma of his father’s death sends Major into an emotional tailspin, making him impossible to control. Summer believes she’s been granted a miracle when a VHS tape of an old kids TV show, MR. CROCKET’S WORLD, appears on her doorstep. She plays it for Major, and it works like a charm in finally getting him to calm down and behave. But soon, Major’s love for the show and its relentlessly cheery host, MR. CROCKET, devolves into an obsession. To keep her sanity, Summer has to pull the plug on Major’s endless TV marathon. When Major goes on a tirade in response, smashing some of his late father’s most treasured items, Summer lashes out and says some harsh words. Later than night, Mr. Crocket himself violently emerges from the television and kidnaps Major through a mysterious portal. The police don’t believe a word Summer says, so she launches into a search all through the neighborhood for clues about Mr. Crocket and all of the other kids he’s taken over the years. What Summer uncovers about where they’ve all vanished to sends her on a journey deep into Mr. Crocket’s dark and twisted world.
