With a wave of internet borne nostalgia, Corvalo, a washed up creature feature host from the 60s, 70s and early 80s, goes on tour to meet his fans and sell DVD boxed-sets of The Crypt of Corvalo, his long-running regional television show. When his agent, Richard, arrives, Corvalo hopes there is good news about his return to the small screen, but Richard informs him that the talks for a show have stalled, and confronts Corvalo with a strange newspaper clipping. Unable to quench his thirst for fame, Corvalo decides to reveal his true self to Richard and quench his thirst in other ways. Inspired by the masterful impersonations of Michael McQuary, and based on an idea by Anthony Ladesich, Corvalo is an exploration of ways of hiding and revealing our identities. Writers Trey Hock and Ladesich knew that the horror genre, with its classic movie monsters would be a fun way to look into the character of Corvalo. Though neither is a fan of the horror genre, they hope that they treated it with the dignity and gravitas the genre deserves. Shot over two days, Corvalo is a love letter not only to classic horror, but also the vibrant film community in Kansas City. Everyone who worked on Corvalo did so for no pay and with very little sleep. This film would not exist without all of them.
