Hailing out of Germany, we worship the official trailer for Uprise Pictures’ Reyes,. It’s a gruesome tale featuring occult rituals and human sacrifice, it is going to be a thrill ride, very far from PG13 rating!

Phillips (The Corpse Grinders, Return to Return to Nuke ‘Em High Aka Vol. 2), Antonio Monroi (Apocalypto, Texas Rising), Patrick Jahns (Bunker of The Dead, Break), Peter Ahlers (Skatecop), Brigt Skrettingland, Dietrich Kuhlbrodt, Aileen Dankyi-Sampong and many others.
