The honeymoon phase is meant to be one of the best times in a marriage, but sometimes, things go terribly wrong. That’s the case in writer-director Phillip G. Carroll Jr.‘s The Honeymoon Phase.
“Down on their luck and needing some quick cash, struggling young lovers Tom and Eve lie about their relationship in order to enter THE MILLENNIUM PROJECT, an experiment for married couples run by the mysterious Director and Handler. With the promise of $50,000, Tom and Eve must survive 30-days isolated together in a futuristic smart home, while the researchers attempt to determine why couples fall out of love. Over the course of their stay, Eve begins a violent descent into madness as she questions if her lover really is the man she thinks he is.
A paranoid sci-fi thriller about the nature of trust in relationships, The Honeymoon Phase is as much classic “Twilight Zone” as contemporary “Black Mirror”, and an all-too-terrifying answer to the question, “How well can you ever really know someone?”
Jim Schubin (“Boardwalk Empire”), Chloe Carroll, with Tara Westwood
(The Grudge 2020) and Francois Chau (“Lost”, “The Expanse”) star in the film produced by Phillip G. Carroll Jr., John G. Carroll, Chloe Carroll, and Jess Weiss.
