About Me

"This film is still giving me nightmares. Don't watch it anywhere near bedtime."
- Chuck Palahniuk (Fight Club, Choke)

"'Throwaway' is no throwaway... it's for sure a keeper!"
Lloyd Kaufman (Pres. of Troma Entertainment)

"A nasty little film...with hints of greater things to come..."
Jerry Chandler (Synapse Films)

"THROWAWAY is a chilling, effective horror film with both style and substance, with one of the most genuinely haunting endings I've seen in a long time."
- Jimmy Hemphill (Film Quarterly)

Abby is new to Los Angeles. She takes a job working the graveyard shift at a home security company as an operator. With such a tough schedule, she spends her days like a vampire, sleeping while the sun is up. This rotation gets disturbed, however, when Abby is repeatedly awoken each day by the sounds of a Bum rummaging through her apartment's dumpster (which rests directly outside her bedroom window). When Abby decides she's had enough, she confronts the Bum in the hopes of negotiating for some daily solace. Only the Bum has other plans for Abby that have nothing to do with a little spare change.

If you sleepwalk through your days, you could bump into a nightmare.
