The ugly duckling son of a picture-perfect bourgeois family receives a much-needed dose of self-confidence when he is befriended by a beautiful and capricious stranger in director Stephane LaPointe's festering family drama. Thomas Dufresne (Marc Paquet) isn't like the rest of his family. The offspring of a highly successful father and a razor sharp mother whose keen intellect is widely known thanks to her winning performance on a popular quiz show, twenty-five year old Thomas is as clumsy as they come. When Thomas crosses paths with free-spirited waitress Audrey (Catherine De Lean), it seems as if he has finally found the muse who could truly help him live up to his vast potential. Subsequently praised by his architect teachers for his creative innovation, Thomas finally begins to savor the sweet flavor of success. But Audrey isn't everything she appears to be, and when Thomas finds out the truth behind their "chance encounter" the repercussions that follow may be enough to rend the tenuous seams that hold this family together once and for all. ~ Jason Buchanan, All Movie Guide

Winner of the City TV Award for Best First Feature Film at The 2004 Toronto International Film Festival, Daniel Roby's direct-to-video horror opus Cannibal (aka Le Peau Blanche, aka The White Skin) offers a unique contemporary twist on vampirism. Roby's film melds jet-black humor, grotesque horror, impassioned romance, and shocking social commentary as it weaves the tale of Thierry Richard (Marc Paquet), a young Canadian collegiate. Thierry develops an unquenchable infatuation with Claire (Marianne Farley) an enigmatic woman with almost deathly white skin. Shortly after they commence an affair, Thierry is horrified to discover his own physiological deterioration; he admits to his pal Henri that he can actually feel Claire inside of his body, draining the life out of him. When Claire's sister viciously attacks Henri at a local hotel, the two men begin to suspect that Claire's nature and origins may be very grim and vile indeed. ~ Nathan Southern, All Movie Guide
