Vegas Winters, a depressed washed up child actor, fled Tinseltown and now owns and lives in a rundown laundromat. He finds lost socks in the machines and uses them to soak up all his bodily fluids. One night he is bullied and he cries a tear that turns the pile into a loving sock monster named Crust. Crust becomes his protector and friend. Meanwhile he has a new girlfriend, a paranormal investigator hounding him, and an old two faced costar that is forcing him to join a reboot of their 90s sitcom. As Vegas's life begins to spiral, his enemies are obliterated with deadly consequences.

Sean Whalen's directorial debut 'Crust' is an indie gem full of heart, misfits, and dirty socks.

Crust is a film with a ton of heart, some sadness, a bit of depression, and a touch of silliness.

I watched crust after seeing a clip online. I have to say its really good. The storyline is actully original. Sean whalen makes you feel the pain in his characters heart. The story keeps you engaged. Its destined to be a cult classic.

While some of the actors certainly have that "still learning" feel to their performance (think Clerks with slightly more polish), Paul/Vegas' depression and emotions are well delivered by Sean Whalen. I felt for him soon after the movie started. His Ex played by Felissa Rose did a great job, as did Nila played by Rebekah Kennedy. These ladies really pulled together a strong core cast with Sean. I won't mention the cameos by known actors, but of course the people you recognize did great. The movie has camp, but we aren't talking the level of Troma or to the point of cheesy. Enjoyable while not really pulling away from Paul's mental decline. One trope they teased over and over and it balanced the silly with the serious very well. No spoilers, it had to do with props. Bravo to the puppeteers. It may have been one of the simplest puppets ever (I have no idea, but the first impression is "simple") but the way they emoted feelings through a pile of socks, I was really impressed with.

Funny, corky and scary all at the same time. All the things you want in an offbeat comedy horror. Really hoping there’s a sequel to see what the future holds for Vegas and Crust.

Loved it. Gave me a Kevin smith Clerks meets Hitchcock vibe. Enjoyed it beginning to end.
