The cast will star Pogue as Paul, Yates as Ouisa, and Eric Leonard as Flan; as well as Laura Coover as Elizabeth, Stephen Dale as Ben, Brandon Ford as Hustler, Sasha Gioppo as Tess, Michael Gonring as Trent, Zach Gray as Doug, Nick Horst as Rick, Howie Johnson as Detective, Joe Mack as Larkin, Guy Massey as Dr. Fine, John Milewski as Geoffrey, Rebecca Prescott as Kitty, and Drew Schad as Woody.
