Welcome to Florida!
Starring Johnny Pemberton, Kevin Nealon, Kirk Fox, Tom Arnold, Robert Patrick & Kevin Dunn - Doug is an awkward Florida drug addict. Divorced and alone, he shares custody of his young daughter with his ex. Doug's reeling from losing his job at a local strip club, where he takes care of the fish in the aquarium. Things are beyond bleak - so Doug zips his boat out into the Gulf to end the pain of his reality. But at his lowest point, he discovers an injured Mermaid creature clinging to life. For Doug, it's a sign from the Universe - so he brings her home, gives her shelter in his tub and begins to nurse her back to health. He even names her Destiny. As their rapport blossoms, word of his secret gets out and he is forced to protect his new friend by any means necessary.
"A wickedly funny and unabashedly absurd horror comedy." - Avi Offer NYC Movie Guru
"One of a kind, Mermaid is a strange fusion of crime thriller and surrealist comedy and you can't ignore the sheer audacity at play and not admire this funky amalgamation. For those who get on its wavelength, there’s nothing else quite like it." - Kristy Strouse Film Inquiry
"It is a story of a man rescuing a mermaid, yes, but it is also one of self-discovery and friendship. Beautifully weird and full of emotional depth, this one makes a splash in a big way." - Phil Walsh Geek Vibes Nation
