Kazman said the short came from an idea he had for a feature film about two brothers who felt different types of guilt when their mother died unexpectedly. One of his school frenemies had told him that every time someone masturbates another person dies, and after the fatal moment, Dusty starts to believe he has that power and acts accordingly. In “Killer,” young Dusty (Hale Lytle) is enjoying some quality time to himself when his mother suddenly drops dead in the next room. “That was kind of intentional, because it’s an inherently silly idea: a kid thinking that masturbating can kill someone.”Īlso Read: ShortList Film Festival 2016 Chooses 12 Finalists, Opens for Voting “The logline definitely reads a little sillier than the movie plays,” Kazman told TheWrap. But it’s also about growing up in a society where most teens get their sex advice from each other. Kazman’s “Killer,” one of the finalists in TheWrap’s ShortList Film Festival 2016, is a 20-minute look at a boy who believes his self-pleasuring is also a deadly weapon. Matt Kazman wanted to make a film that got inside the minds of teenage boys.
