<\/p>\n\u201cThey Exist.\u201d<\/p>\n
At the axis of fantasy and horror is associate producer Mem Ferda\u2019s Mermaid Down, the tale of a tortured siren forced ashore to navigate her new environment as a literal fish out of water. After being captured and mutilated by two dubious fishermen, the mermaid is sent to a psychiatric hospital where she develops an unlikely bond with the other patients and maps out her revenge.<\/p>\n
Coined as \u2018A grown-up version of The Little Mermaid\u2019, Mermaid Down effortlessly intertwines violence, gore, and suspense with a poignant, heartfelt storyline. Speaking with FilmDaily.co, director Jeffrey Grellman shared: \u201cMermaids are from our childhood, and they\u2019re from mythology. To chop off one\u2019s tail would instantly connect the audience to a protagonist that no adult should really connect with.\u201d<\/p>\n
First released in October 2019, the critically acclaimed feature grossed $116,000 worldwide.<\/p>\n
Mermaid Down is now available for viewing on Blu-Ray and at Prime Video.<\/p>\n
