Exclusive clip: Something deadly in the dark in “WORST LAID PLANS”; full Blu-ray details

There are bad trips in store in the independent horror anthology that just hit disc.

Scream Team Releasing has made WORST LAID PLANS, based on the best-selling book from Grindhouse Press, available on Blu-ray (including signed editions) and VHS. Shot in West Virginia, North Carolina, and Florida, it was directed by Christopher G. Moore, Jeremy Herbert and John Hale, and stars Morgan McLeod, Brian Ashton Smith, Malcolm Mills, Christopher Trindade, Maximilian Koger, Marissa Gatsios, Jennifer Trudrung, Greg Harpold, Emi Curia and Nick Karner. The synopsis: “In ‘Deep in the Heart,’ a fractured family tries to reconnect while touring a cave system that hides a horrifying secret. ‘You’ve Been Saved’ is the story of two reunited friends on a road trip full of nostalgia and hangovers. When one of them is slipped a cryptic note by a young girl, their vacation takes a sinister turn. And finally, in ‘Taylor Family Vacation ’93,’ a father on vacation, determined to find out the truth behind whoever is stalking his family just out of sight, comes to the sobering realization that the answer he seeks might just be hidden within the contents of his video camera.”
