About Freaky Tales

Freaky Tales is an American anthology action comedy directed and written by Anna Boden and Ryan Fleck. The film stars Pedro Pascal, Ben Mendelsohn, Jay Ellis, Dominique Thorne, and Jack Champion and marks the film debut of singer Normani. It premiered at the Sundance Film Festival on January 18, 2024, and was released in theaters on April 4, 2025.

Set in Oakland, California, in 1987, the film consists of four interconnected stories based on real locations and historical events. It weaves together multiple interconnected narratives involving an NBA star, a corrupt cop, a female rap duo, teen punks, neo-Nazis, and a debt collector.

These diverse characters collide in a series of confrontations. Each segment explores different characters and perspectives within the city’s social and cultural environment during that period. The first story, 'Strength in Numbers: The Gilman Strikes Back,' follows punk rock fans who organize a defense against a Nazi punk group attacking their community and local music scene.

The second segment, 'Don’t Fight the Feeling,' focuses on two women rappers, Barbie and Entice, who confront challenges including harassment and misogyny as they pursue their music careers. In 'Born to Mack,' Clint, a man trying to leave a life of crime after a family tragedy, faces pressure from a criminal organization to return for a job tied to a basketball game. He later discovers his infant child survived the attack.

The final chapter, 'The Legend of Sleepy Floyd,' depicts a basketball player whose family is targeted by a Nazi gang. The story moves as he seeks revenge and works alongside other characters to confront the gang’s leader.
