This Thanksgiving, buckle up for a heart-pounding experience as CWM Entertainment and Rivers Ash Productions unveil the spine-chilling trailer and poster art for When the Trash Man Knocks. From the twisted imagination of writer/director Christopher Wesley Moore, the mastermind behind the hair-raising “Children of Sin,” comes a bone-chilling journey into the depths of horror.

Christopher Wesley Moore shares, “Anxiety is something I have a very personal connection to, and I wanted to make a horror film about what it’s like to live with that and how it affects people differently. You have this mother and son who are both dealing with their own anxieties in equally unhealthy ways and how they come to the conclusion that they have to confront them if they’re ever going to have a chance at a happy life. That’s when this horrible monster from their past returns and throws everything out of whack. It’s definitely a slasher film, but at its core, it’s also a family drama. I think of it as a little bit Halloween and a little bit Ordinary People.”

In When the Trash Man Knocks, the serene Thanksgiving celebration of a small Southern town takes a nightmarish turn as the deranged killer, known as the Trash Man, resurfaces. On a gruesome mission to craft his own macabre family using the body parts of his victims, the film forces a mother and her son to confront their deepest and darkest fears.
