Ahead of their debut at the 2022 SXSW Film Festival, we got together on Zoom with the director and select cast members from the new queer horror film, Hypochondriac! In our comprehensive hour-long conversation, we cover everything from the real-life breakdown that inspired the movie, echoes of Donnie Darko, hilarious sequel prospects, and our interpretations of that zany ending.
American Horror Story 1984’s villainous Richard Ramirez actor, Zach Villa, this time plays introverted potter, Will. To call Will’s childhood disturbed would be massively underselling things. When he was only twelve, Will’s mother tried to kill him—18 years later, and she resurfaces just as Will’s life seems to be coming together nicely. Will has been dating Luke (Devon Graye) for eight months now, and works for a gallery in “the business of high end pottery.” As Will is getting into the stage of opening up fully with Luke, Mom (Marlene Forte) calls unexpectedly, leaving an ominous voicemail about trust. Next, a box of empty DVDs shows up with another warning from Will’s Mom. Her voice is soon inescapable, and Will cannot help but listen to the eerie voicemails she leaves on his cell. Watch for part two our exclusive interview with Zach Villa, Devon Graye, Addison Heimann, and Yumarie Morales!
