Leech, The

[Screens Oct. 18 at 9 p.m. during the Screamfest® Festival that runs Oct. 11-20 at the TCL Chinese Theater in Los Angeles; for information, log on to screamfestla.com.] When a devout, kindhearted, altruistic, asthmatic, Catholic priest (Graham Skipper), who is trying to expand his flock that has been absent in the pews, offers an unruly, irreverent, ultimately mooching homeless man (Jeremy Gardner) and his pregnant girlfriend (Taylor Zaudtke) a place to stay during the Christmas holidays in Eric Pennycoff's original, dark, satirical, unsettling, 82-minute horror film, his ordered life quickly unravels as he becomes increasingly frustrated and angry and losing touch with reality and patience with his ungrateful, over-the-top houseguests.
