Rent-A-Pal (2020)
Written & directed by Jon Stevenson this film stars Brian Landis Folkins, Wil Wheaton, Kathleen Brady and Amy Rutledge. In 1990 a lonely middle aged man caring for his mother who has dementia struggles to find companionship until he gets a “rent-a-pal” video.
I really enjoyed a lot of this film, it is creepy and captures what loneliness can be. My only real criticism of the film is I am not sure it foreshadows the ending well enough and could have been a great film with a little more effort. The performances here are the highlight, especially Wil Wheaton's.
4/5
