RE-ANIMATOR star Barbara Crampton returns to the realm of weird science—this time as the practitioner—in REPLACE, set to arrive in time for Halloween. Read on for an exclusive first look at the new trailer and poster, plus the release info.

Uncork’d Entertainment releases REPLACE on VOD and DVD October 1. Crampton’s co-stars include Rebecca Forsythe, Lucie Aron, Sean Knopp and Adnan Maral; Norbert Keil directed from a script he wrote with genre fave Richard Stanley (HARDWARE, DUST DEVIL). The synopsis: “Afflicted with a dermatological disease, young and beautiful Kira [Forsythe] discovers that she can replace her skin with that of other girls. Helped by her lover, she plots a murder and the victim becomes her donor, but when the disease returns, she is forced to find more victims.”
