Support our pre-launch Kickstarter campaign for Boardwalk Dad Detox, the next movie in the I Married a Monster on a Hill universe! After the success of Disaster Date Roulette, we’re excited to bring another indie film that expands this world. Boardwalk Dad Detox shines a spotlight on Jackie and Wagner, two reporters who have appeared in shorts and episodes, now leading their own story in this brand-new project.


Be sure to Follow the Kickstarter Pre-Launch Page to be notified the moment the campaign goes live!

What Is Boardwalk Dad Detox?

This feature-length adult animated comedy (2+ hours) is a grounded, slice-of-life story about forgiveness, family bonds, and owning up. Jackie’s drinking is tearing apart the family he built, and Wagner is left trying to hold everything together. The question is, can they fix the damage before it’s too late?


The film balances humor with heartfelt honesty, tackling subjects like addiction, burnout, recovery, and family loyalty. It’s a more serious take within the I Married a Monster on a Hill world, while still carrying the wit and sarcasm fans love.


Meet the Main Characters



Jackie – A conspiracy talk show host who’s usually right, Jackie’s life has spiraled into drug and alcohol addiction after years of “normal.” Stubborn, rude, and often obnoxious, he buries stress under noise and chaos instead of facing it. Once the family’s bubbling goofball, Jackie is now caught in a storm of his own making - and struggling to claw his way back.

Wagner – Jackie’s son, a loyal co-host, and a mayor, Wagner is the faithful, traditional type with a big heart. A millennial burned out from work and the crushing responsibility of looking after Jackie, Wagner barely has room to breathe. He’s happily married to his husband, Damien, but can’t even enjoy a vacation without his father’s chaos dragging him down. Sweet, caring, and sharp, Wagner is the glue of the family, though even glue has its limits.

Starring Luca Xavier as Wagner and Joey Sourlis as Jackie "Boardwalk Dad Detox" will follow these two on their journey to forgiveness.
