Exclusive photos, plus poster, trailer: “IN MEMORY OF,” from controversial “SCRAPBOOK” director

Indie filmmaker Eric Stanze, who has won praise and controversy for screen shockers like SCRAPBOOK, DEADWOOD PARK, ICE FROM THE SUN and RATLINE, is back with a new movie called IN MEMORY OF. We got a batch of exclusive pics to share, along with the poster and trailer.

Stanze directed IN MEMORY OF from a script he wrote with Jason Christ and Jackie Kelly, who also star in it along with Adam Ahlbrandt, Emily Haack, DJ Vivona, Haley Jay Madison, Jason Allen Wolfe and Katie Groshong. The film was shot in seven states (Illinois, Missouri, Oklahoma, Texas, New Mexico, Arizona and Utah); the synopsis: “When a medical experiment turns into a blood-soaked nightmare, the only surviving subject [Kelly] flees for her life. Painfully missing her most precious memories of childhood, pummeled by horrific hallucinations and pursued by those who stand to profit from her damaged brain, Amber Sheridan embarks on a cross-country road trip to track down a mysterious stranger—the one man who has the ability to end Amber’s madness, and restore the memories that have been stolen from her.”

IN MEMORY OF will be available soon on Blu-ray, which can be pre-ordered now at the official website of Stanze’s Wicked Pixel Cinema.
