Synopsis: Ferrari Thunderbird Taylor is getting ready to leave South Carolina behind forever and start a new life in the Queen City – until her deadbeat husband exchanges all their hard-earned money for cryptocurrency at the behest of a shadowy cult figure, known only as Ted. Before her new life can begin, Ferra must dismantle Ted’s legion of Apocalypse-preppers, restore her husband’s sanity, and salvage what’s left of her good name.

Meet the cast

Endangered features performances from Walker Borba, who has previously graced the screen in cult hit “Popstar: Never Stop Stopping,” as well as Olivia Cordell and Sacaiah Shaw.

Saturday Night Live alum Cheri Oteri plays Roger’s doctor, who delivers some bad news … among other things.  

Hilarious Canadian power couple Baram and Sniekus play Roger’s parents Dan and Fran, who respect their son’s right to bodily autonomy and appreciate the bodily sacrifice he must make for the good of mankind … respectively. 

Atsuko Okatsuka (named one of Variety’s top 10 comics to watch in 2022 and soon to tape her first HBO stand-up special), Ajarae Coleman and Beth Lapides make up the board of the Earth Institute, the Endangered universe’s pro-life PETA organization. 

Camryn Manheim is an educational video instructor who takes a hard-line about teens remaining abstinent when it comes to … swimming, and Jim Woods (The Last O.G.) plays Roger’s disapproving coach. 

“Well, that’s quite a fun spin on the abortion issue! Loved so many parts! Including dad being “hormonal.” Brava- Bravo-Bravi! “Hysterical” indeed!” said the Be Epic! Film Fest and we hope you agree!

The film follows Ferrari Thunderbird Taylor, who’s hellbent on leaving her dead-end job as a human sign, and moving to the bustling metropolis of Charlotte, North Carolina. Unfortunately, she runs into trouble when her dumbass husband invests all their money into a shady crypto-currency at the behest of a doomsday prophet only known as “Ted.” It’s Q-Anon meets Bitcoin as Ferra tries to get her money back and salvage her reputation.

The short is in consideration at a number of film festivals across the Southeast, and has been selected at:

• The Raleigh Film & Art Festival (where Endangered took home the award for best short last year!)
• The Freedom Festival International (Aug. 18 in West Columbia, SC)
• The Southern Film Festival (Aug. 19 in West Point, GA)
• The North Carolina Film Festival (Best Feature, 2022)

Alex dropped in for a virtual Q&A with the team at the NC Film Festival which you can watch here. Watch to the end for Alex’s explanation of the origins of the phrase “Well Dang!”, and draw a blank on his favorite movie quote.
