“Sex ‘n bugs ‘n sausage rolls.” ShineHouse has revealed a new official US trailer for a British indie comedy called La Cha Cha, directed by filmmaker Kevin Allen. After first premiering in the UK in 2021 during the pandemic, the film is set for a VOD release in the US this April a few years later. Liam Hourican stars as Solti Buttering, who is on a road trip to scatter his grandfather’s ashes. Along the way he stumbles upon “La Cha Cha”, a closed holiday park with a lively off-grid retiree community. Struggling to keep the place going, feisty owner Libby and brother Damien unveil an unconventional plan to sustain it and the residents. This also stars Ruby Ashbourne Serkis, Sonny Ashbourne Serkis, Dougray Scott, Alfie Allen, Keith Allen, Llyr Ifans, with Rhys Ifans & Melanie Waters. Even with an impressive cast, looks as kooky and as strange as they come. Not sure it’ll appeal to many! You never know who might need a trip to La Cha Cha.
Here’s the official US trailer (+ poster) for Kevin Allen’s La Cha Cha, direct from YouTube:
Solti Buttering (Liam Hourican) is on a road trip to scatter his grandfathers ashes. Finding everywhere closed, he stumbles across La Cha Cha, a holiday park with a community of retired characters, living off grid and having the time of their lives. He discovers that feisty owner Libby Rees (Ruby Ashbourne Serkis) & her brother Damien (Sonny Ashbourne Serkis) are struggling to keep the place, and community, going. But they have a very unusual plan. La Cha Cha is written and directed by British actor / filmmaker Kevin Allen, director of the movies Twin Town, The Big Tease, Agent Cody Banks 2: Destination London, Flat Lake, Y Syrcas, and Under Milk Wood, plus the TV series “Benidorm” previously. Produced by Kevin Allen, Geraldine Geraghty, and Adam Whittaker. This initially debuted in the UK in late 2021. ShineHouse Group will debut La Cha Cha in the US direct-to-VOD starting April 23rd, 2024 this spring. Anyone interested?
