Not only was Joe Lynch behind the super fun Wrong Turn sequel, but he directed Salma Hayek in the Die Hard-esque Everly, and went LARPing with Knights of Badassdom.
Next up is Mayhem, which pairs Lynch with “The Walking Dead” star Steven Yeun and Samara Weaving, an Australian actress who toplines McG’s upcoming horror movie The Babysitter.
I caught the film and loved it, writing in my review:
“Mayhem is an independent rager that’s pretty fucking hardcore.”
In Mayhem, “After being framed for corporate espionage on the same day that a mysterious virus is unleashed on his company, attorney Derek Cho is forced to savagely fight tooth and nail for not only his job but his life.”
The film, penned by Matias Caruso, had its world premiere at the SXSW Film Festival where RLJ Entertainment and AMC Networks’ Shudder partnered to acquire North American rights. The next stop is the UK FrightFest in London.
