OMFG of the Day x50: Watch 9 Minutes of Gruesome Brutality in Leaked ‘Piranha 3D’ Footage!
Smart on our reader’s behalf to remain anonymous, ’cause what you are about to see is sure to get us a kick in the butt. Beyond the break you’ll find the leaked footage from Piranha 3D that premiered at last week’s San Diego Comic-Con. The very not safe for work clip is 9-minutes long and features gallons of that much-promised bloodshed from Alex Aja’s film swimming into theaters on August 20. It’s literally a piranha buffet; can you say “chomp-chomp?” Go forth, watch the spoilerific clip (if you dare), and then drop your thoughts below. I’m dying to know what you gore-hounds think of THIS.
A gnarly infection threatens to claw its way out of a moving camper in the first trailer for Shudder’s claustrophobic Hellcat.
The feature debut of writer/editor/director Brock Bodell, who previously edited the Fantasia title Ultrasound, makes its debut on Shudder on August 14.
In Hellcat, “Lena wakes up in a moving camper trailer with a horrifying wound. She’s warned by the driver that they have one hour to get to a doctor, or she’ll succumb to an unimaginably awful fate. As the pain sets in and reality begins to fray, who should really be afraid?”
Dakota Gorman (Natural Disasters) leads the cast that also includes Todd Terry (“Breaking Bad”), Liz Atwater (The Other People), Jordan Mullins (The Bikeriders), and James Austin Johnson (“Saturday Night Live”) in a voice role. Bodell also produces alongside Andrew Duensing and Nate Eggert.
Hellcat made its world premiere last summer at Fantasia. I wrote in my review, “Hellcat is a bit of a Trojan horror that defies easy classification, by design. Bodell’s sneaky debut feature is occasionally too sparse in its worldbuilding in its bid to preserve the mystery, but not enough to detract from the thrilling road thriller that transforms into a completely left-field type of horror we don’t get nearly enough of. The stripped-down tribute to a classic horror staple catches you off guard in more ways than one, marking Bodell as one to watch.”
In other words, there’s a lot more than meets the eye to Hellcat‘s simple infection setup, delivering plenty of surprises along its bumpy road of horrors.
Check out the trailer and poster below and add Hellcat to your watchlists asap.
