Breaking Glass Pictures proudly announces the worldwide release of Rufus, the daring new horror anthology film from Canadian-American director Mars Roberge that premiered at six film festivals, winning three awards (Best Horror Film at the Los Angeles IFS Film Festival and L.A. Punk Film Festival, Best Supernatural Feature at The New York Science Fiction and Horror Film Festival) and receiving two nominations (Best Picture at Los Angeles IFS Film Festival and Best Feature Film at Atlanta Horrorfest).

At the heart of the anthology is Rufus, played by legendary former drug kingpin turned motivational speaker Freeway Rick Ross. Living in South Central Los Angeles, Rufus entertains friends and children against his wife’s wishes by telling them five strange and disturbing stories. These tales, described by Roberge as explorations of body horror, range from a mortician working on the wrong night to a singer who discovers the rot beneath the entertainment industry, to unsettling visions of adoption, medical malpractice, and the human cost of war. Each story is laced with bizarre imagery and biting social commentary, earning Rufus comparisons to The Twilight Zone, Creepshow, and Phantom of the Paradise. “Rufus also stands for ‘Really Unusual F***ed Up Shit,’” explains Roberge. “It’s what he says after every story. He’s a man telling campfire-style tales from the hood, but he’s also a mirror for the strange realities we all wrestle with.”
