Festival of Fear Teases Sullivan’s ‘One For the Road’ and ‘Cut/Print’
Tim Sullivan (2001 Maniacs, Driftwood and the forthcoming Chillerama) will be attending the Rue Morgue Festival of Fear to host two exclusive previews of Cut/Print and One For the Road, the first productions under his “Tim Sullivan Presents” banner.
A study in darkness and endurance, writer/director Nathaniel Nose’s Cut/Print follows a morally corrupt filmmaker (played by Vince Orlando, scheduled to attend the screening) who embarks on an exploitive documentary about serial killers in the hope he will draw out the real deal. He gets his wish, evoking the perverse, spanking brand new celluloid bad guy- THE MAESTRO. “No one will forget the final five minutes of ‘Cut/Print,’ assuming they can sit through them,” promises Sullivan.
Based on the short story by Stephen King, writer/director Paul Ward’s One For the Road serves as a coda to King’s classic Salem’s Lot and stars genre favorites Reggie Bannister (Phantasm) and Adam Robitel (2001 Maniacs) as two Maine locals whose lives are disrupted by a mysterious stranger whose wife and young son have been stranded in the infamous Lot…
Check out some exclusive images.
These screenings mark the first opportunity for audiences to view either film, both which evoke shades of horror decidedly darker then the ‘splatstick’ shocks of Sullivan’s 2001 Maniacs franchise and “I Was a Teenage Werebear” segment of the upcoming horror comedy anthology feature Chillerama.
(Sullivan will also be hosting the uncut Festival version of “Teenage Werebear” along with Adam Rifkin’s “Wadzilla” in a special Rue Morgue Chillerama teaser screening.)
Cut/Print screens SATURDAY AUGUST 27th at 3 PM in ROOM 711
One For the Road screens FRIDAY AUGUST 26th at 1:00 PM as well as SUNDAY AUGUST 29th at 1:00 PM (Both in Room 711)
“Wadzilla” and “Werebears” screen FRIDAY AUGUST 26th at 12 noon as well as SUNDAY AUGUST 29th at 1:00 PM (Both in Room 711)

Director Sébastien Vaniček has been set to helm the next Evil Dead movie, but up first from the filmmaker is the creepy crawly spider horror movie Infested. An exclusive new clip gives a discomfiting closer look at the spider terror, and it’ll make you intensely afraid of all bathroom drains and fixtures.
Infested will induce a new wave of arachnophobia this week; the spider horror film arrives on Shudder on April 26, 2024.
If you’re brave enough to face your fears, watch the new clip below to get a feel for the unrelenting wave of spiders that the characters (and the audience) will face in the film.
In the film, “An underprivileged suburb has been thrown into chaos following an invasion of venomous spiders. Ordered to be placed in quarantine, the project sees inhabitants living on lockdown alongside terrifying spiders that are becoming bigger and bigger.
“The story revolves around Kaleb, who’s about to turn 30 and has never been lonelier. He’s fighting with his sister over a matter of inheritance and has cut ties with his best friend.
“Passionate about exotic animals, he comes home one day with a venomous spider and accidentally lets it slip away.”
Théo Christine (“Suprêmes”), Finnegan Oldfield (“Final Cut”), Jérôme Niel (“Smoking Causes Coughing”), Sofia Lesaffre (“Les Misérables”) and Lisa Nyarko star.
Florent Bernard co-wrote the script.
In his review out of Fantastic Fest last year, Bloody Disgusting’s Trace Thurman raved that Infested (aka Vermines) is “one of the best spider attack movies in years,” noting in his 4-star review that the creature feature uses practical spiders – REAL SPIDERS – as much as possible. Thurman also wrote that the spider horror movie is “full of moments that will get under your skin (I kicked my legs up more than a few times in my screening).”
The spiders will be everywhere in Infested, are you ready?
