Two salesmen knock on the home of a serial killer in horror comedy “Keeping Company”

Smart and witty, funny but gory, that’s how we like our horror comedies. And Keeping Company (2021) promises to deliver all of those elements in a story full of social criticism and murder.

In the movie, a fateful chain of events begins to unravel after two brash insurance salesmen go knocking on the wrong door and find themselves trapped inside a serial killer’s basement, putting their lives and their jobs on the line.

This is the debut feature film of writer and director Josh Wallace, after a few short films and the comedy TV movie Funny Or Die Test Tube: Hush Money (2015). Devin Das, one of the stars of the film, is also the co-writer.

Besides Devin Das, Jacob Grodnik, who has been seen in Disturbing the Peace (2020), The Fanatic (2019), and Dear Dictator (2017), are the stars of the movie in a cast that also includes Ahmed Bharoocha, Gillian Vigman, Bernard White, Andy Buckley, Suzanne Savoy, Rex Lee, Medina Senghore, William Russ, and Mary Holland.
