QuickTime Trailer Debut for ‘The Oxford Muders’
It was announced the other day that Alex de la Iglesia’s thriller The Oxford Muders is finally getting released here the States (two years later). The Elijah Wood starrer will arrive on VOD, Xbox Live, Playstation, Amazon and Vudu, July 2 and opening in theaters August 6 from Magnolia Pictures. At Oxford University, a professor (Hurt) and a grad student (Wood) work together to try and stop a potential series of murders seemingly linked by mathematical symbols. Below you’ll now find the official trailer.
“When an elderly woman is viciously murdered in Oxford, her body is discovered by two strangers whose lives are immediately changed forever: Arthur Seldom (John Hurt), a prestigious professor of logic, and Martin (Elijah Wood), a young graduate student who has just arrived at the university hoping to be Seldom’s pupil.
It quickly becomes clear that hers is the first in a series of increasingly bizarre murders, with each victim’s corpse marked by strange symbols. Professor and student join forces to try and crack the code, setting into motion an elaborate game with the killer with ever-increasing stakes. As Martin gets closer to the facts, he grows increasingly unhinged from his grasp on the world around him.
Based on Guillermo Martinez’s award-winning novel, THE OXFORD MURDERS is an edgy and intelligent thriller from cult-favorite director, Álex de la Iglesia.”

Kayden Bryce, Marshall Vargas, Carlie Allen, Stephen Nicholas Knight, Debbie Scaletta, Bill Schroeder, Cali Jacobs, Candela Orio, Amanda Yanzanny, and Chris Hahn star.
Eddie Lengyel (Mother Krampus 2, American Poltergeist: The Curse of Lilith Ratchet) directs and produces from his screenplay. Fellow producer is Marie Lengyel. Jeff Miller (Ouija House) and Ronnie D. Lee (The Toybox) executive produce. Mick Kunz shot and edited the film.
“I think our concept of ‘technology meets werewolves’ is something audiences will dig,” producer Jeff Miller said in a statement. “Grab a pizza, sit back, and enjoy!”
Byte is a co-production between Millman Productions, Fright Teck Pictures, and Ron Lee Productions. In addition to the trailer, you’ll also find the upcoming film’s poster art below.
