Trailer: Kombucha

About: David Cronenberg meets The Office in this oozing corporate horror-comedy of soul death by spreadsheet and gut rot. Trapped in a fluorescent-lit cubicle farm, an aspiring musician thinks the free break room kombucha is a perk – until it begins to change him. What starts with suspicious smiles and team-building ends in a bile-drenched metamorphosis.

Premiere: December 2, 2025, On Demand/Blu-ray

Directed by: Jake Myers

Starring: Terrance Carey, Claire McFadden, Paige Bourne

Director and co-writer Jake Myers considers this film to be a satire on corporate startups. Following are his comments from an interview with Variety:

I found it really refreshing in this idea that we’re all going to be productive, and it felt a little ‘woo’. Kombucha is on tap at so many startups in different places. That’s why that drink felt really important. This idea of corporate family and these rituals felt culty in a way that I enjoyed. I’ve worked at startups before, and all of those things happen. You do feel love bombed at first, but you also feel the fear that any day we could do a mass layoff. It’s a terrifying but relatable sentiment, and I really liked that hook.

You can purchase the film on Blu-ray or VOD from Amazon.com.
