STAIN-FREE: CODE BLACK: "80s horror icon Thom Mathews (Tommy Jarvis in Jason Lives and Freddy in Return of the Living Dead) returns in Stain-Free: Code Black, a gritty crime-horror short film by writer/director Philip Tice and produced by Cary Woods (Scream, Copland).
In the film, Mathews stars as Lincoln, a jaded crime scene cleaner working alongside his new partner, the morally-conflicted Billie (played by newcomer Charity Farrell), as the pair are called in to handle a “Code Black” clean up job – “disposal of anything or anyone connected to the incident”. Hopefully, that doesn’t include them too.
When the pair arrive at a southside warehouse, they find the aftermath of a brutal bloodbath. But when their cleaning begins and they catch two survivors – a mechanic and his girlfriend, played by actors Bo Tyler and Sally Lomonaco – Billie’s conscience brings her into conflict with Lincoln as they weigh their captives’ fates against the wrath of their mysterious, monstrous Employer.
The film, which was written, directed, and produced by Philip Tice and inspired by harrowing horror classics like Henry: Portrait of a Serial Killer, premiered at Hollywood Horrorfest 2021 and was recently honored with the Golden Reel Award at Shockfest Film Festival 2022. After completing its festival circuit, Stain-Free: Code Black is now publically available to watch for free on Youtube or at www.tice-tomes.com."
