The water is tainted. THE TAINT poisons the minds of men. It turns them into raging misogynists: monsters who want nothing more than to KILL WOMEN. When society is transformed into a land of sadistic violence and horrible brutality, it is up to Phil OʼGinny and his female friend, Misandra, to combat the horrible evil that is “THE TAINT”.  THE TAINT is an intellectual experience. It is an violent and misogynistic film about violence, misogyny, and entertainment. It features sadistic violence, gratuitous sexual content, and scenes of spellbinding dramatic interest. It also contains more cock explosions than any other movie ever.  THE TAINT was directed by Drew Bolduc (creator of THE GODENING!) and Dan Nelson. Drew described the film as, “The ultimate sexually-frustrated-male-nerd-emotional-masturbation-release film, done in the style of an 80ʼs horror-comedy.”  The low-budget independent film was made in Richmond, VA with the help of many incredibly talented local artists and Virginia Commonwealth University students. It is a testament to guerilla style filmmaking and a great example of what can be accomplished outside of the studio system with very little money.  THE TAINT is a completely original cinematic experience. It is a work unlike any other. David Bow of the Portland Mercury put it best, “someone else should see it, just to confirm for me that it’s real.”

"HORROR FLICKS ARE A DIME A DOZEN, BUT THE TAINT SEEMS TO EXAMINE THE RENRE WITH A POSTMODERN WINK."
