The FP
In a dystopian future, a relentless turf war rages. Civic decisions are decided by to-the-death dance-dance video games competitions.
“The FP works for its audience, a rowdy crowd of midnight movie fans willing to put up with over-the-top silliness, bad performances, and general lunacy.” — Brian Tallerico, HollywoodChicago.com
Two rival gangs feud for control of rural wasteland Frazier Park (‘The FP’) in the deadly arena of competitive dance-fight video game “Beat-Beat Revelation.”
After hometown hero BTRO is slain on the dance platform by thug leader L Dubba E, his protégé younger brother JTRO (Jason Trost) goes into isolation, vowing never to duel again. One year later, The FP is in ruins, and JTRO must find the courage to return and restore order in a ruthless battle for revenge that can only leave one man dancing.
From the producers of PARANORMAL ACTIVITY and featuring narration by James Remar (THE WARRIORS), THE FP is a fury of fierce footwork, triumphant montages and neon streetwear that Moviefone calls “a rare ready-made cult hit.”
Brothers Jason Trost and Brandon Trost developed this project over years as an exploration on the strange, aggressive male culture (and actual lingo) of their hometown. Just a few miles north on I-5 from Los Angeles, Frazier Park (THE FP) is philosophically a million miles away.
