The movies’ latest madman begins cutting up next month.
Almost halfway to its titular holiday, Blood Moon Pictures’ NEW FEARS EVE (track back through our previous coverage starting here) will have its Official Red Carpet Premiere Saturday, June 15 in Cannon Hall at Riverpark Center in Owensboro, KY. Doors open at 7 p.m. CST, and the screening will begin at 7:45 p.m.; it will be followed by a Q&A with the filmmakers, and then an afterparty that will be attended by cast and crew. Tickets are $10; to pre-order them and for more information, click here.
The movie had an early showing at this month’s Chicago Horror Film Festival, where it took the award for Best Horror Comedy. One of those in attendance was Vincente DiSanti, writer/director of the popular FRIDAY THE 13TH fan-film series NEVER HIKE ALONE, who says, “NEW FEARS EVE has the most creative kills I’ve seen in years. Gory enough to make you puke and laugh while doing it. A damn good and gory time.”
Directed by P.J. Starks and Eric Huskisson from a script by Starks, NEW FEARS EVE was produced by the duo and Jeffrey Reddick, Dave Sheridan and Felissa Rose, who also co-star. The cast additionally includes Hannah Fierman (V/H/S), Lily-Claire Harvey, Turner Vaughn, Matthew Tichenor, Jay Woolston, Alyssa Rhoads, Sonya DeLormier, Cody Webb, Roni Jonah and Jesse McDonald as The Doctor, the movie’s villain. The synopsis: “As the coming year approaches, three best friends reluctantly prepare for Hooper Industries’ annual New Year’s Eve bash. The clock ticks down and the body count rises as a psychotic murderer known as The Doctor is on the loose. This sadistic surgeon of death leaves Owensboro covered in blood as local police and FBI are forced to navigate through a maze of bodies left in his wake. Unbeknownst to the three best friends, their mandatory party is about to turn deadly when the killer sets his sights on them. December 31 becomes a party to die for when Leslie, Brian, Moses and their colleagues are trapped inside an inescapable building with a bloodthirsty madman hell bent on carving his way to midnight.”
