Directed and written by Shal Ngo, known for his work on "The Park," "The Box," and "The Last Fisherman," "Control Freak" introduces a chilling narrative: A motivational speaker is tormented by an unrelenting itch on the back of her head.
Shal Ngo was tapped to write and direct the short film "Control" in 2021 for the second season of Hulu’s Bite Size Halloween. The feature version of "Control Freak" developed from this initial short, becoming part of WorthenBrooks’s robust slate of horror features for Hulu, which includes titles like "Appendage," “The Mill," "Clock," "Mr. Crocket," and “Carved."
The film stars Kelly Marie Tran, celebrated for her roles in “Star Wars: Episode VIII - The Last Jedi” and "Raya and the Last Dragon," as Valerie, a woman whose life spirals into chaos due to this inexplicable and relentless affliction. Alongside Tran, Miles Robbins plays her on-screen husband Robbie, adding depth and suspense to the storyline.
