Ancient parasites rise from a small town, taking the most fearful and susceptible hosts. A young filmmaker finds herself as the only one who can sense the possessed resistance before the horror escapes and spreads.

The first of two feature films director Alice Maio Mackay put out in 2023 (and the first of three we're screening this spring), T-Blockers is a timely little action-horror film about what happens when misogyny, fascism, and transphobia are allowed to run free and unchecked. And more importantly, what we can do to stop them. Full of crunchy, skull-bashing action, and fueled by an intense look at trans daily life, T-Blockers asks why we aren't doing more to stop those who target our communities, especially when we know who the monsters are.
