Melmoth the Wanderer
Colourful, condensed and quirky, Melmoth the Wanderer is based on the first ever horror novel. Five chancers present a terrifying tale of temptation, torture and a traveller desperate to find someone to take over his pact and release him from immortality. Who will take on his curse?
Comic surrealism meets shock horror in this series of ridiculous situations where innocent eccentrics struggle to survive. A random playground of the bizarre inspired by Saw, Psycho, Tim Burton and Fawlty Towers, this is the sort of delirious chaos that sets Big Telly apart.
“They say there is a thin line between insanity and genius and Big Telly demonstrates how very thin that line is, and how very easy it is to jump back and forth across that line with a silly grin on one's face.”
