Current Criticwire Average: B (out of 6 critics)
Official Synopsis: "Months after a weekend fling, Boston research scientist Paul (Karpovsky) continues to lust after his beautiful coworker Danielle (Newman), nurturing his fantasies with the occasional polite exchange at work. But once she starts dating another scientist at their lab, his infatuation quickly turns into obsession -- and he finds himself unable to control his desires. A slow-burn character study-turned-psychosexual thriller, co-written by Karpovsky and Garth Donovan, 'Rubberneck' is a chillingly believable story of workplace romance gone wrong."

Reviews:
"The most compelling drawn-out thriller I’ve seen in a while."
"The continuing emergence of a remarkable talent both in front of and behind the camera."
John DeFore, Hollywood Reporter:
"A solid dramatic turn for a filmmaker best known for playing comedic parts."
Jordan Hoffman, Badass Digest:
"A very interesting psychological portrait."
Henry Stewart, The L Magazine:
"Karpovsky's direction at least allows us to wrestle awhile with the banality of psychopathy."
"Rubberneck" is now available on VOD and opens in limited release in New York this Friday.
